SUBMITTED by candymaker
“Big batch, makes about 400 balls”
2 lbs. Peanut butter
1 pound butter
3 pounds powdered sugar
2 (12 oz.) packages of semi-sweet chocolate chips (Use a good
quality chocolate)
1/2 of one bar of paraffin wax
Place wax paper or parchment paper onto cookie sheets; set
aside. Cream together peanut butter and butter. Add sugar a
little at a time, mixing well. Roll peanut butter mixture into
approximately 400 1-inch diameter balls. Insert one tooth pick
or stick into each peanut butter ball; set aside. Melt chocolate
and paraffin in a double boiler and be careful not to over-heat
the chocolate. Dip the ball into the chocolate so as to ALMOST
cover the entire ball, leave small portion of ball uncoated. Let
cool on waxed paper. Store in a cool place.

give away that many!
