Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Balls

2 cups peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
1/2 cup butter softened
3 cups icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla (yes I forgot to put this in, but they tasted great anyway!)
3 cups crispy rice cereal (I used Special K)

Mix peanut butter, butter vanilla and icing sugar, add cereal mixing well until well combined.

Form dough into 1" balls and place them on a cookie sheet covered with wax paper. Chill for 20 minutes in the fridge or pop them in the freezer for 10 minutes.

In a double boiler or microwave melt 1/4 bar of pure paraffin (yes, wax, I know it's weird but that's what you do!!) with 3 cups of chocolate chips.

Using fork or slotted spoon, dip the peanut butter balls into the chocolate and place on wax paper. Chill until set
