Sometimes, the 'dough' is rather sticky without all the sugar, but a half hour in the 'fridge helps firm it up.(Some people add krisped rice cereal, too - but, I don't.). We actually prefer them not so sweet, and we dip them in dark chocolate.

We call them chocolate covered Peanut Butter Balls. I also use one cup crunchy and one cup creamy peanut butter as well as Rice Crispies. I also drizzle them with white chocolate. I love to make these around any holiday...and they make into great gifts. I also use Paraffin wax with mine. I am a new reader to your blog. We call them chocolate covered Peanut Butter Balls.

I've only had paraffin in my house once and that was forever ago to make candles or something. Anyway these are another thing I want for Christmas... along with the sugar cookies, iced of course. You really make it hard for weak people to get throw the holidays without sweets! But I say, bring it on! If you don’t use shortening you can use paraffin… that is so funny to me!
