Servings		150 balls

Ingredients

-	6 ounces semi-sweet choc chips
-	1/2 cake paraffin wax
-	1 - 8 oz. Hershey chocolate bar
-	1 cup margarine softened
-	4 cups crunchy peanut butter
-	6 cups Rice Krispies
-	1 1/2 pounds powdered sugar


Instructions


Melt chocolate chips, wax, and Hershey bars in a double boiler over low heat. Do not boil. Mix margarine, peanut butter, Rice Krispies and powdered sugar and form into walnut sized balls. Optional: You can freeze balls for 1 hour at this point.


The freezing makes the balls easier to work with. Place balls on a toothpick and dip into melted chocolate. Place coated balls on waxed paper. Let chocolate set. If chocolate becomes to thick, reheat and/or add more wax.


Variation: After the chocolate has set, you can use some leftover chocolate to drizzle a thin stream over the finished balls. A plastic bag with a small hole cut in one corner works well as a make shift pastry bag.


Substitution: Almond Bark/Chocolate Bark can be used for the chocolate mixture. This can be easily microwaved for use instead of the double boiler.


Serving Suggestions

Can be refrigerated or frozen.
