In a large bowl or inwards the bowl of a stand upwards upward mixer, compaction together the peanut butter, butter, inwards add-on to confectioner's carbohydrate until gum forms. It should hold upwards slow to shape, like a soft yet dry out out dough. If it is truly soft--too soft to shape, add together together additional powdered carbohydrate a tablespoon at a quaternary dimension until it forms the correct texture.
Roll the dough between your hands into iv inch long logs, around 1-1 1/2 inch inwards diameter. Place on the lined tray.
Refrigerate slice you lot lot melt the chocolate according to packet instructions. Meanwhile, stir together the chips inwards add-on to cereal inwards a shallow bowl or platter.

My thoughts:
For some reason, Peanut Butter Boppers, a snack rarely discussed that disappeared from the shelves inwards the 1980s has haunted me for decades. Growing upward we did non eat much inwards the way of packaged snack nutrient at all. My mom packed our lunches but 99% of it was homemade inwards add-on to fifty-fifty the things like chips were from a larger handbag inwards add-on to repackaged--no prepacked convenience foods for us. For some reason, Boppers must pick out made it into the cart because I tin post service away soundless shout out upwards how they sense of savor today. I pick out a truly distinct memory of looking at them on the shelf when I was or so vii inwards add-on to beingness told we couldn't learn a box inwards add-on to together with and so they disappeared from the shelf forever. I pick out this matter where I can't truly picture anything beyond the vaguest outlines inwards add-on to i of the truly few things I tin post service away diversity of paradigm is a row of Boppers on a grocery store shelf thence it made quite an impression! Why I don't know. They were truly tasty though!When the meshwork became a matter I tried to await them upward to reckon if they were soundless regionally available or discontinued entirely. I kept thinking they were called Bonkers which didn't build experience every flake Bonkers was another candy of the '80s that is at demo defunct inwards add-on to inwards my search, I realized that what I was thinking of was called Boppers. I industrial plant this commercial which explains some of my confusion--in it they account around "going crazy, going boppers" over Peanut Butter Boppers. Who uses "boppers" inwards add-on to non "bonkers" to intend nutty is beyond me but at to the lowest grade that solved i mystery. Boppers also made a cameo inwards The Lost Boys, they were on the shelf the boys were non allowed to touching on inwards the fridge along amongst the root beer inwards add-on to Oreos. So someone out at that location was eating them besides me!
Basically, Boppers were a dryish peanut butter stick (think the filling of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup) rolled inwards chocolate inwards add-on to together with so crisped rice cereal inwards add-on to chips. Apparently, they were made by times granola-famous Nature Valley but I don't recall them beingness marketed every flake whatever diversity of wellness nutrient inwards add-on to let's hold upwards honest, these are a treat.
Since I pick out always loved nighttime chocolate, I used nighttime melting chocolate inwards add-on to semisweet chips (which I experience were inwards used inwards the originals every flake well) but if you lot lot pick out more than of a sugariness tooth, you lot lot tin post service away run milk melting chocolate and/or chips. Remember to run actual melting chocolate though thence it sets upward properly. Alternatively, you lot lot tin post service away melt inwards add-on to temper your possess chocolate but this is much easier inwards add-on to for this, simply every flake tasty. Also, run mini chips to coat, regular chips are simply besides large inwards add-on to testament tumble off.
They truly practise sense of savor like the Boppers I shout out upwards (of course, I was around 6 back inwards add-on to together with so thence it has been a while) but peradventure slightly improve thank you lot to using improve quality ingredients. Satisfyingly peanut buttery, slightly crunchy inwards add-on to chocolatey. I don't intend they are bringing these back to the shelves anytime presently but you lot lot tin post service away relish these today!
Now if I could simply figure out how to build Chocolate Mint Bubblicious, another mid-80s era discontinued favorite, I'll hold upwards all set.
