Ingredients

1/2 lb. butter or margarine (2 sticks)
1 c. plus 2 Tbsp. smooth peanut butter
1 box confectioners sugar
3/4 bag chocolate bits
1 c. fine crumbs of vanilla wafers (I put about 8 at a time in a sandwich bag and pound and roll them with rolling pin or heavy water glass)

Directions

1

Mix all together.
2

I knead it with hands like bread, as it is stiff.
3

Form into balls (roll in palm of hands), smaller than walnuts.
4

Melt together in double boiler 3/4 of 1 block paraffin wax.
5

Roll balls in chocolate mixture and put on wax paper lined cookie sheet.
6

I use ice tea spoon with long handle to get them out of double boiler.
7

If they stick to pan, you can pull them free by pushing them off wax paper by putting your hand under wax paper. Sounds harder than it is.
