Ingredients

¾ cup honey (255 g)
- Maple syrup — 1:1 Slightly thinner; similar calorie
1½ cups powdered milk (144 g)
3 cups peanut butter (768 g)
- Almond butter — 1:1 Milder flavor; slightly lower calorie
3 cups Rice Krispies cereal (90 g)

Steps

In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, Rice Krispies, powdered milk, and honey. Stir until evenly mixed.
Roll the mixture into about 24 balls, roughly 1½ inches each.
Place on a lined baking sheet or plate. Refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes. Store in the fridge.

Tips

These freeze well. Store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months and thaw in the fridge for 15–20 minutes before eating.
If the mixture feels too sticky to roll, chill it for 10 minutes first or lightly wet your hands.
