Beehive Snacks- Peanut Butter Honey Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 cup icing sugar
    1/2 cup honey
    1/2 cup peanut butter
    1 1/2 cups Rice Krispies (Rice Bubbles)
    1/2 cup non-pareils (hundreds and thousands)
Preparation
    Combine icing sugar, peanut butter and honey in a small bowl.
    Add Rice Krispies (Rice Bubbles) and mix well.
    Put non-pareils in a shallow bowl.
    Make small balls from the mixture and toss in the non-pareils.
    Put onto lined tray and refrigerate for an hour until firm.
    Store in the fridge for a week.
    You can toss them alternatively in grated chocolate or chocolate sprinkles etc.
    NB: I found that the balls were a bit dry and the non-pareils didn't stick easily. I first dipped the balls into a mixture of 1 tablespoon of honey and two tablespoons of water, and then into the coating. This worked well for me, but I believe my peanut butter wasn't very oily which is why the mixture turned out a bit stiff. If you see that your balls are a bit dry, I recommend the extra step.
