Buckeye Balls

 

These are chocolate-covered balls of peanut butter and confectioners' sugar.

 

 

Servings: 30

 

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar

6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

2 tablespoons shortening

 

 

Directions:

1. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper; set aside.

2. In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and confectioners'

sugar with hands to form a smooth stiff dough. Shape into balls using 2

teaspoons of dough for each ball. Place on prepared pan, and refrigerate.

3. Melt shortening and chocolate together in a metal bowl over a pan of lightly

simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth, and remove from heat.

4. Remove balls from refrigerator. Insert a wooden toothpick into a ball, and

dip into melted chocolate. Return to wax paper, chocolate side down, and remove

toothpick. Repeat with remaining balls. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.
