1 c. butter
12 oz. crunchy peanut butter
1 lb. powdered sugar
12 oz. chocolate chips
1/2 bar paraffin wax (optional)

Combine butter, peanut butter, and sugar; mix well. Form into small balls. (About 1 inch diameter.) Melt chocolate chips in double boiler; using a toothpick, dip balls into chocolate. Place on wax paper to dry.

Note: You may heat 1/2 bar paraffin wax in double boiler with chocolate, if desired. However, the wax does cause the chocolate to have a tendency to melt easier when you are eating the candy.
