"The ripple effect is a concept where small changes in one state can lead to exponential changes in another," McKinlay said. "The idea behind my platform is that small acts of service will lead to thousands of hours of volunteerism." By working with Dixie State University's Student As- sociation Service Branch, she wants to establish the "Quest for 100,000 Hours" where students will log hours and try to reach 100,000 hours of service as a university. 1 ''N.

But as much as I continue to enjoy pulling back the orange wrapping to reveal the classic peanut butter and chocolate treat, I've long wondered how hard they might be to make from scratch. Not changing much, mind you, but adjusting the flavors and texture just a bit and playing around with the type of chocolate coating for a richer, dark chocolate flavor.

I prefer ground crisped rice cereal, as it adds a light crunch without extra flavor. Form the pieces, freeze, then coat in chocolate a fondue fork is perfect for this and pop into little candy cups before refrigerating. Homemade peanut butter cups 1 jar peanut (12-ounc- e) 2 butter 1 stick butter, softened 2 cups powdered sugar 6 cups crisped rice cereal bags semi (12-ounc- e) sweet or milk chocolate chips In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the peanut butter and the butter until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. 2. Place the crisped rice cereal in the bowl of a food processor and crush to a very fine meal. Add the cereal to the peanut butter mixture and beat to combine. This makes about 3 cups filling. Cover and refrigerate until very firm, three to four hours. 3. Divide the filling into 1. generous scoops. Very quickly, roll the scoops into balls, then flatten slightly to form patties about 1 inch wide by inch thick. If the dough begins to warm and get sticky, freeze the scoops until firm enough to mold. Freeze the formed patties, uncovered, on a parchment-line- d baking sheet until solid, preferably overnight. 4. Melt the chocolate chips in a large microwave-saf- e bowl, stirring every 20 to 30 seconds until evenly melted. If the melted chips feel a little too thick, stir in a little coconut oil to thin the -- treat melted chocolate. 5. Remove just a few patties at a time (keep the rest of the patties frozen), and dip them, one at a time, in the melted chocolate. Tap the candy a few times to remove excess chocolate and carefully drop each piece into a candy or truffle paper cup, adjusting the sides as needed so the patty sits level in the cup. Repeat until all of the peanut butter cups are assembled. 6. Place the cups in the refrigerator until the chocolate is hardened before serving. (c)20 17 Los Angeles Times. |
