Rice Krispies White and Dark Chocolate Truffles

This is a kid-friendly recipe - for making and eating.
Makes 24 truffles

1 pkg white chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup Rice Krispies Vanilla Flavour

1 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips - you will melt this later

1. Melt white chocolate chips and butter in medium bowl in microwave or over saucepan of boiling water. Stir until smooth. Let cool at room temperature about 30 minutes.

2. Form white chocolate mixture into 2.5 cm (1-inch) balls. Roll in cereal, pressing cereal into truffles to coat well. Roll in palms to re-shape balls. Refrigerate about 30 minutes, until firm.

3. Melt semi-sweet chocolate as in step one. Dip prepared balls in chocolate to coat. Lift out with fork, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place on waxed paper lined baking sheet. Let cool about 1 hour.

4.  If desired, drizzle with melted white chocolate ... simply dip a fork into it and drizzle.
