Peanut Butter Chocolate Balls 

FILLING
1 c. chunky peanut butter
1/4 c. butter, softened
1-3/4 c. powdered sugar
2 c. crisp rice cereal

COATING
1 c. butterscotch-flavored chips
1 c. semi-sweet real chocolate chips
1-1/2 T. shortening

In large mixer bowl combine peanut butter and butter. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy (1 minute). Continue beating, gradually adding powdered sugar and scraping bowl often, until smooth (1-2 minutes). By hand, stir in cereal.

Shape rounded teaspoonfuls of peanut butter mixture into balls; place on waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Cover, refrigerate at least 1 hour.

In 1-quart saucepan combine all coating ingredients. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth (3-4 minutes). Remove from heat.

Using a spoon, dip peanut butter balls into chocolate mixture, letting excess chocolate drip off. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes to set.

4 dozen candies.
