CHOCOLATE - PEANUT BUTTER COOLED
APPLES
 
10-12 wooden screwers
10-12 med. apples
12 oz. Reeses peanut butter chips
2/3 c. Hershey's cocoa
2/3 c. powdered sugar
1/2 c. chopped peanuts or coconut (optional)

Insert wooden skewer into each washed and thoroughly dried apples. In top of double boiler over hot, not boiling, water combine peanut butter chips, cocoa, confectioners' sugar and oil, stir constantly until chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat. Dip apples in mixture. Twirl to remove excess coating. (If coating becomes thick return heat and add additional oil, 1 teaspoon at a time.) Roll lower half of coated apple in peanuts or flaked coconut if so desired. Allow to cool on wax paper. Chill if desired.
