Sinfully delicious!, April 25, 2009

"I made this using 1.5 cups of each ingredient + the extra ¼ cup of coconut, and I used brown puffed rice. I used parchment instead of foil. It took more than 10 minutes because it took longer to melt the chocolate. I used the oven method. I had to put my oven on it's lowest setting, around 125, put the chips in a Pyrex bowl in oven for 7 minutes, stirred, then put back in oven for another 7, stirred, then made the balls. It made 2 dozen.

I suggest adding the rice crispies first and then the coconut because the coconut really soaks up the moisture fast. I couldn't form the balls by hand as they stuck to my hand more than to the ball. I finally used 2 spoons--got a (table) tablespoon on the bottom and pressed the top with a (table) teaspoon and formed them that way. It didn't really make a ball but a mound, which was fine. A suggested variation is a single, whole almond inside each ball and less rice crispies."
