Ingredients
    1 lb. peanut butter
    1/2 lb. (1 c.) margarine, room temperature or melted and cooled
    1 1/2 lb. confectioners sugar (about)
    1 (12 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet real chocolate chips (not chocolate flavored chips)
    1 (2 x 1 1/2-inch) piece paraffin (from Gulf's 2 1/2 x 5-inch 4 oz. bar)
Preparation
    Combine the peanut
    butter
    and margarine thoroughly in the large bowl of
    your mixer.\t(I found that room temperature margarine worked fine so I\tdidn't\thave
    to
    melt it and then wait on it to
    cool.)
    Gradually
    add the powdered sugar until too stiff for beaters.\tStir
    in
    additional
    sugar
    until
    it becomes a consistency you
    can
    handle.
    Roll in buckeye sized balls (about the diameter
    of
    a quarter) and chill 30 minutes if necessary.
