Ginger's Peanut Butter Balls

This makes a LOT of peanut butter balls, and is time-intensive. However the end result is worth the work.

Ingredients
2 cups Creamy Peanut Butter
1/2 cup of butter
1 pound of powdered sugar
16 oz of chocolate (I prefer dark or semi-sweet)

Instructions
Mix 2 cups creamy peanut butter with 1/2 cup of butter. Gradually add 1 pound of powdered (confectioner) sugar. Roll into balls the size or large marbles. Put into fridge to chill. Then dip balls into chocolate (usually you need 16 oz. for one batch) and set on wax paper until firm.

Notes
If not using special chocolate for cooking then we add 1 TB veg oil per 6 oz of choc chips when melting in double boiler.
