Buckeyes
1 28 oz. jar peanut butter
1 lb. box confectionary sugar
1 t. vanilla
1/2 C. butter
Coating:
10 oz. chocolate chips
1 T. vegetable oil or cocoa butter
Cream together peanut butter, vanilla and butter. Add confectionary sugar.
Roll mixture into balls the size of a walnut and place them on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Chill in the refrigerator while you melt the coating.
Place the chips and oil in the microwave for 60 seconds. Stir until smooth. If it needs to go back in the microwave do it in 10 second intervals.
Dip buckeye into chocolate and shake off excess chocolate. Place back on wax paper to harden.
