Buckeyes - Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls
- 1 stick softened butter
- Approx. 1 lb. confectioners' sugar
- 1 3/4 c. JIF peanut butter (1 18 oz. jar works!)
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 tbsp. vegetable shortening
- 1 (12 oz. package) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mix peanut butter, butter, and vanilla together in a large bowl - adding confectioners' sugar until proper consistency is reached.
Roll candy into 1-inch balls and place on wax paper-lined cookie sheet.
Melt chips and shortening together in top of double boiler.
Keep chocolate mixture in double boiler over low heat while you dip each candy.
Using a toothpick, dip each ball, covering about 3/4 of candy. Place candy on sheet to cool.
