1/2 c. peanut butter
3 TBS. butter, softened
1 c. sifted powdered sugar
8 oz. chocolate or chocolate-flavored candy coating

In a mixing bowl stir together peanut butter and butter. Gradually add powdered sugar, stirring until combined. Shape into 1-inch balls, place on waxed paper. Let stand until dry (20 min.)

Melt chocolate. Cool slightly then dip balls, one at a time into coating. Let excess drip off and place inside of a paper candy cup. Let stand until coating is firm (you can also just place on wax paper). Store tightly covered in refrigerator. makes about 30 pieces.
