Peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate. They look like buckeye nuts. Absolutely delicious!

Ingredients

  • 0.5 cups butter , melted
  • 1 pound confectioners' sugar
  • 1.5 cups peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon shortening

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine the melted butter or margarine, confectioners' sugar, peanut butter and the vanilla together and mix well. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm. Roll into 1 inch balls and place on waxed paper.

  2. 2

    In the top half of a double boiler melt the chocolate chips and shortening, stirring constantly. Use a toothpick to dip balls into the melted chocolate, leaving a small uncovered area so balls resemble buckeyes. Place balls on waxed paper. Use fingers to blend in toothpick holes. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm. Enjoy!
