Ingredients
-
½ cup butter, melted
-
1 pound confectioners' sugar
-
1 ½ cups peanut butter
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
-
1 tablespoon shortening
Directions
-
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.
-
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!
