• Place on wax paper until dry, keep refridgerated.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST AND EASIEST PEANUT BUTTER BALLS!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream the butter and peanut butter with a mixer.
• Once it's blended well, slowly add the powdered sugar. Usually, after the second cup, I'll check it every few times to make sure the mixture isn't too dry.
• Once you've added all the sugar, it should be a nice soft consistency, not sticky and easy to roll but not dry to where it crumbles. If you put all the sugar in and it's still to sticky to roll, try putting in more a little at a time until it gets to a good rolling consistency.
• Roll dough into balls. The size depends on how big or little you would like them.
• Lay the balls on the wax paper in a row and then put in the freezer while you melt the chocolate.
• To a medium size pot, add about 2-3 inches of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower to a simmer and place a metal or glass bowl on top, making sure the bottom doesn't touch the water.
• Add chocolate to the metal/glass bowl. Add wax and mix until it and the chocolate are both melted and a smooth consistancy.
• Once the chocolate is melted, take out the peanut butter balls and set them beside your pot of chocolate. Drop in one or two of the balls into the chocolate and then scoop them out with a fork or spoon. Set them on another cookie sheet or pan lined with wax paper.
• Once your finished, set them back in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes or until hard. They're ready to be served or stored in a decorative tin.

ANNETTE'S PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

Steps:

• Blend together the sugar, peanut butter and melted margarine. Add evaporated milk as necessary - up to 1/4 cup.
• Roll into small balls. Using a cookie scoop helps ensure the size being uniform. Chill for easier dipping later.
• While candy is chilling, first melt paraffin wax in double boiler. Once melted, add the chocolate chips. Stir till well blended.
• Dip candy into chocolate. A toothpick works best. Place on wax paper to set. If you refrigerate the candy at this stage it helps to set the chocolate firm and makes removing from the wax paper much easier and with less fingerprints on the candy!
