Preparation time:

 

Ingredients:

Cookies:

2 cups graham cracker crumbs

2 cups peanut butter

2 cups powdered sugar

1 stick softened butter

Chocolate Coating:

18 ounces melted chocolate (I use Ghiradelli chocolate chips); may melt in double boiler with small piece paraffin (optional but good to make chocolate set and shiny)

Directions:

Combine all ingredients except chocolate and paraffin; chill slightly. Roll into balls and chill or freeze. Drop chilled or frozen balls into melted chocolate; place on foil sprayed with cooking spray until chocolate is completely set. Store in refrigerator (also freeze very well).

Notes:

This is a recipe from Karen Powers – yum! Very easy – and wow are they good!
