1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
6 cups confectioners sugar
4 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1. Mix together everything but chocolate in large bowl. The dough will look dry. roll into 1 inch balls and place on a waxed paper lined cookie sheet.
2. Press a toothpick into the top of each ball (you will use this as the handle when dipping into chocolate.
3. Chill in freezer until firm, usually about 30 minutes.
4. Melt chocolate chips in crockpot about 15 minutes before taking balls out of freezer.
5. Dip frozen peanut butter balls in chocolate by holding the toothpick. Leave a small portion of peanut butter at the the top making them look like little buckeyes. Put back on cookie sheet and refrigerate (or freeze) until serving.
These make about 5 dozen. I made mine quite a bit bigger than 1 inch and made about 35 balls per serving.
