Happy June everyone! Honestly, I wrote this recipe out back in April!!! This recipe is slightly different than the usual ones you may see using rice cereal. This unique recipe uses my secret ingredient (sugar cones), which gives it a little bit of a crunch and adds to the sweetness.

1 Cup (creamy) Peanut Butter

Directions (For Peanut Butter):
-Melt butter first then add the peanut butter and vanilla until creamy.

Chocolate Ingredients:
1 ½ Cup Vegan Chocolate Chips (I use Enjoy Life brand)
2 Tbsp Soy Milk (or any other non-dairy should work fine)
1 Tbsp Earth Balance (vegan butter)

Directions (For Chocolate):
-Combine all ingredients over a double boiler (for a better consistency) until smooth. Or you can microwave for about two minutes stirring in between.
-Drizzle melted chocolate mixture over peanut butter balls and place back in the freezer for 10 minutes (I am impatient or refrigerate overnight. Enjoy!

      Hello there in the UK. Sugar cones are just ice cream cones. I use three full size ice cream cones (or sugar cones) and crush them down – so the measurement here would be the cones themselves. You can also use rice crisp cereal (about a cup or 8 oz) for a crunch too if you’d like. I hope this helps. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
