Nut Chocolate Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon honey
6 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
1 tablespoon shortening
2 cups chopped walnuts

Preparation

In medium bowl, mix peanut butter, confectioners' sugar and honey until blended. Knead with hands if necessary.
Shape into 3/4 inch balls; place in jelly roll pan. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
When balls are firm, heat chocolate and shortening until melted and smooth under low heat. Remove pan from heat; let chocolate cool slightly. Carefully dip balls into chocolate mixture, then into chopped nuts to coat. Place on waxed paper-lined pan; cover loosely and refrigerate until coating is set- about 1 hour. Store in tightly covered container in refrigerator.
