Smores Balls

Ingredients:
2 Tbs butter or margarine
2 cups mini-marshmallows
chocolate chips
3 cups Golden Grahams cereal


Over low heat, melt butter with marshmallows, stirring constantly.


When marshmallows have melted down to 1/2 of their original size remove from heat. Add cereal and mix well. Don't let the marshmallows melt completely.


Spray hands with a cooking spray. Divide mixture into 15 parts. Roll each part with hands and form into balls. Place chocolate chips throughout each ball. Set each ball on wax paper and let cool completely.


What I did differently from the recipe:
Nothing, unless you count the fact that my "balls" look completely abnormal.

What I'll do differently next time:
Use a little bit more marshmallows, a little less cereal.

Verdict:
Thumbs up. They are great for snacking on, and probably fun to make with kids. I'm really not sure how in the heck you're supposed to make balls out of these, though. Mine are falling apart. But still good, as long as you're not going for a blue ribbon in the looks department!
