- Mix all ingredients together.
- Drop by heaping teaspoons onto waxed paper (refrigerate for an hour if you cannot roll into balls.)

- ( I usually refrigerate twice.. before rolling.. And after rolling. I’ve even covered and left over night after rolling then dipped the next day.)
- (Coating)….
- In a double boiler melt chocolate and paraffin to smooth & glossy.
- Dip, making sure all sides are covered.. I use a fork.. Then let set-up.. Can put in chill chest at this point.. Even overnight.. These candies freeze very well..and are first sellers at craft shows and bake sales..
