These little chocolate, peanut butter candies melt in your mouth. They are so yummy and don't require paraffin wax like so many other buckeye recipes. Ingredients:
3 cups creamy peanut butter |
7 -8 cups powdered sugar |
2 cups margarine, softened |
4 teaspoons vanilla |
3 (12 ounce) packages chocolate chips |
6 tablespoons shortening |
Directions:
1. Mix peanut butter, sugar, butter and vanilla together in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Melt chocolate chips and shortening over low heat (I use my crockpot). Make peanut butter mixture into 1 inch to 1 1/2 inch balls. Work with a small amount of the peanut butter mixture at a time, keeping the rest refrigerated until ready to form into balls. Using toothpicks or small forks, dip the balls into the chocolate. Set on wax paper and refrigerate.
