MARTHA WASHINGTON BALLS
This candy is always made for Christmas at our house. They taste a bit like Almond Joy candy bars. They are very yummy. I really don't have any idea how many this recipe makes, but I know it is a lot. These make great gifts placed in a Holiday tin.

- Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler.
- Pierce balls with a tooth pick or wooden skewer, dip balls into chocolate.

- Note: This recipe originally called for 1 block of paraffin wax melted in with the chocolate chips. I don't care for the wax, so I don't add it. It's just a personal preference.
