Peanut Butter Cups

- 1 pound butter, softened
- 2 cups peanut butter
- 3 tsp. vanilla
- 2-1/2 - 3 lb. powdered sugar
- 1 pound dipping chocolate****

1) Cream butter and peanut butter. Add vanilla. Add sugar; form into small balls.

2) Pour little bit of chocolate in the bottom of paper candy cup. Drop ball in while chocolate is soft. Pour more chocolate on top to rim of cup. These balls can also be dipped in chocolate using a toothpick or dipping fork.

OMG, I would love nothing better than whipping up some fabulous dishes and serving them to all of you through this computer if I could!!! Reach your hand in the computer and click on 'receiving tray' at the bottom right of your comp!! haha. It's not surprising to know I used to sell my goody desserts at work and they always sold out!! It was fun!! Come to think of it, I don't know what I'm doing quilting when I should be baking and selling it/giving it away!! haha. :D :D :D

Your welcome, everyone!! I might add that if you use toothpicks to dip the balls in chocolate with that if you freeze the balls first, they'll stay on the toothpick without sliding! :D :D
