Ingredients: 

1 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1/2 bag chocolate chips
2 tbsp. crisco

Directions: 

Mix with hands until creamy. Refrigerate 1 hour then make into 3/4" balls. Bigger is fine too if that's what you prefer. Melt 1/2 bag of chocolate chips and 2 tbsp. crisco. Stir every 30 seconds until all chips are melted. Then dip the balls in the chocolate covering it half way up. I usually do this with a tooth pick. It leaves a hole in the top so when your done you can drizzle a bit more chocolate on top. Keep refrigerated.

~These look really nice put into mini candy cups.

~Enjoy~

Madagascar Vanilla (purchase at Chefs Catalog) Of all the vanilla's I've used this is my favorite. Once you've tried it you won't go back!
