Peanut Butter Balls

I love these little balls of happiness!!!! The kids help me make them every Christmas to give to teachers, daddy's office, the mailman.....make some with your kids today! They will love you for it:)

1 (16 oz.) box confectioners' sugar
1/2 c. melted butter
2 c. peanut butter
3 c. Rice Krispies
1 (12 oz.) bag chocolate chips
1/2 stick paraffin wax (food grade)

Mix sugar, butter, peanut butter and Rice Krispies in a large bowl. Blend thoroughly with hands until dough forms. Roll into small balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter). Place on an ungreased cookie sheet in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes to harden.
Melt the chocolate morsels and paraffin wax together in a double boiler. After the chocolate is melted, use a toothpick to dip each ball into the chocolate and place on wax paper lined counter or baking sheets to cool and harden.
