Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

2 Sticks Parafin Wax
2 bags of Chocolate Chips
3 Cups Peanut Butter
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
1 Stick Butter
2 or more Tablespoons Milk
Dash of Salt
3 and 3/4 or more Cups
Confectioner Sugar

In a bowl combine your butter, vanilla, peanut butter, salt and milk. Stir well till all ingredients are creamy, Slowly add your Confectioner Sugar, (not too much you want this mixture to be able to roll into a ball, not too dry not too creamy.) When you get the mixture mixed. Taste to see if it has that "melts in your mouth" sensation, if so it is ready to roll into small size balls. Set them aside onto wax paper or clear plastic wrap.

In a sauce pan place your 2 bars of parafin wax, heat over low heat till slightly melted then add your chocolate chips, stir till both are melted completly, You will see a shine to the chocolate. Remove from heat.

Now this is where you have to work at a good pace...Drop each rolled ball mixture one at a time into the chocolate mixture, remove each ball with a wooden spoon. Make sure each ball gets a good chocolate coating on them. Set onto wax paper to cool. Store tightly in refrigerator. *Note: You will not want to store these on top of each other. Unless you wrap them individually.
