Peanut Butter Balls or Buckeyes

2 cups creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
1 lb pkg powdered sugar
2 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

In a mixer, mix first 3 ingredients together, then gradually add powdered sugar. (You may
have to mix by hand towards the end.) Melt chocolate. Drop into Petit Four tray, about 1/
3 full. Roll peanut butter mixture into balls and press into chocolate lined molds. Gently
tap tray to allow chocolate to settle around peanut butter.

[You can also stick a toothpick into each ball and dip into melted chocolate leaving a little
peanut butter showing around the toothpick and allow to set on Roul’pat or Silpat.]
