My family makes these every Christmas, they're one of our favorites. The maple flavoring is the key ingredient!
INGREDIENTS (for 3 servings):
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 1/2 cups peanut butter
- 4 cups confectioners' sugar

PREPARATION:
Combine the butter, peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and maple flavoring. Cream well and knead well.
Melt the chocolate chips over low heat. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls. Dip into melted chocolate chips.
Refrigerate overnight (or at least for about 15 minutes) on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
