Buckeyes from the Buckeye State

I am originally from Ohio.  As any Ohio State fan knows, Ohio is the Buckeye State.  I think that with your birth certificate, you are issued this recipe...........

Buckeyes

2 sticks margarine or butter
2 cups peanut butter (I prefer to use extra crunchy for texture but you can use smooth if you prefer)
1 box (1 lb) confectioners sugar

mix well.  Make balls, the size of marbles - refrigerate1 hour or so on wax paper.

Melt semi sweet chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave, add a little bit of wax(parafin) to make the chocolate shiny.
with a toothpick, dip each ball into the chocolate to cover all but a little circle around the toothpick.  Put back onto the wax paper and put into the refrigerator to harden ............these little candy/cookies melt in your mouth and are a holiday favorite for all who taste them!
