Peanut butter balls

Another holiday favorite! These are perfect to put in cute little bags and give away as gifts.
Ingredients:
1 lb powdered sugar
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 sticks butter, melted
1 cup peanut butter

Mix together and roll into small balls. I put in the freezer at this point to harden up a bit.

Chocolate coating
2 packages semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 package butterscotch chips.

Melt chips in microwave or double boiler. If you are using the microwave be very careful not to burn the chips. Stirring them frequently while melting is key. Once melted dip the frozen balls in chocolate sauce. I line baking sheets with wax paper and put them back in the freezer to harden once again. Once frozen you can bag them up. We like them frozen at our house but they are good room temp too!
