Buckeyes

Ingredients

• peanut butter (1.5 cups)
• butter (1 cup)
• vanilla extract (0.5 teaspoon)
• confectioners' sugar (4 cups)
• semisweet chocolate chips (4 cups)
• toothpicks (60 )

Instructions

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Beat peanut butter, butter, and vanilla together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in confectioners' sugar until dough is stiff, firm, and dry with no lumps; add more sifted sugar as needed.
4. Roll dough into about sixty 1-inch balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheets. Press a toothpick into the top of each ball and chill in the freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
5. Place chocolate chips in a double boiler or in a bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until melted and smooth.
6. Hold the toothpicks and dip frozen peanut butter balls into the melted chocolate, leaving a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top.
7. Return to the cookie sheet, remove and discard the toothpicks, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
