I don't know what in the world is wrong, but for some reason, I cannot retrieve this recipe!!

My family loves these. I usually add a little powdered sugar to the melted peanut butter. Since these are special occasion treats and not an every day thing the extra sugar doesn't hurt.

Fantastic. Have made them often, including once for an office holiday buffet. People went crazy for these. I usually make some w/ milk chocolate and some w/ dark chocolate.
