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!
