I know these look hard to make, but they are so much fun that even little ones can make them! It’s like playing with Play Doh! Great for Church Potluck!

### Ingredients:

1 cup sifted powdered sugar  
 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter  
 3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine, softened  
 1 lb. Baker’s Dipping Chocolate

### Directions:

1- Stir together powdered sugar, peanut butter and butter until well blended using mixer.  
 2- Shape peanut butter mixture into 1 inch balls, placing them on a baking sheet covered with waxed paper.  
 3- Let balls stand for 20 minutes until dry.  
 4- Melt the dipping chocolate according to package directions.  
 5- Drop balls one at a time in melted chocolate.  
 6- Using a fork, remove from the chocolate, letting excess chocolate drip off.  
 7- Place back on the waxed paper.  
 8- Let stand until dry.  
 9- Store tightly covered in a cool dry place.

Yield: 30 pieces
