Number Of Ingredients 7

1 box(es) graham cracker crumbs (or do it yourself)
1 box(es) confectioners sugar xxx
3 stick(s) butter, unsalted
1 jar(s) peanut butter, crunchy (8oz)
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract, pure
- parafin wax (1/2 cake)
1 package(s) chocolate morsels, semi sweet

Steps:

  • In top of double boiler melt chocolate with 1/2 cake of parafin wax. Stir ocassionaly.
  • Meanwhile in large mixing bowl combine all ingredients. Mix well. Keeping your hands buttered or sprayed start making small round balls. Place in fridge until chocolate is ready!
  • Once you are ready have waxed paper prepared and spread out. Dip balls in chocolate and place on wax paper. Allow to thoroughly cool and set up. Tip: You will find the easiest method for you. I have small plastic tongs I use for dipping and use a butter knife to shear off the excess on bottom before placing on paper. Tip: I have made by balls and left in fridge until next day till ready to do the chocolate. Enjoy! Store on wax paper layers in air-tight containers until ready for use.
