Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

RE: Homemade Peanut Butter Cups By PICO (468) Contact HERE ARE A COUPLE RECIPES: PEANUTBUTTER CUPS 1 1/2CUPS PEANUTBUTTER, SMOOTH 1/4 CUP BUTTER OR MARGARINE, SOFTENED 2 CUPS ICING SUGAR 1 TSP. VANILLA ----------- 2 CUPS SEMISWEET CHOCOLATE CHIPITS 1/3 CUP PARAFFIN(WAX) GRATED MIX THE FIRST 4 INGR. AND SHAPE INTO SMALL BALLS.* MELT CHIPITS AND PARAFFIN IN DOUBLE BOILER. DIP BALLS INTO CHOCOLATE AND PLACE ON WAXPAPER. *WHEN I MAKE THEM I USE SMALL CUPCAKE CUPS I LINE THEM UP AND PUT A SMALL AMOUNT OF CHOCOLATE IN THE BOTTOM OF EACH CUP, JUST ENOUGH TO COVER THE BOTTOM. INSTEAD OF MAKING THE PEANUTBUTTER MIXTURE INTO BALLS I MAKE THEM INTO SMALL FLAT PATTIES. ONCE THE CHOCOLATE IS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CUPCAKE CUP, PLACE A PEANUTBUTTER PATTY IN EACH ONE THEN POUR CHOCOLATE JUST ENOUGH TO COVER. ENJOY. =================== THE SECOND RECIPE IS FOR: COCONUT LOGS 2 CUPS ICING SUGAR 2 CUPS FLAKED COCONUT 2 TBS MILK 1 TBS. BUTTER OR MARGARINE -------- 1 CUP SEMISWEET CHOCOLATE CHIPITS 3 TBS. PARAFFIN THESE ARE MADE THE SAME AS THE PEANUTBUTTER CUPS. THE RECIPE CALLS FOR THEM TO BE SHAPED LIKE SMALL LOGS, BUT CAN ALSO BE MADE IN THE CUPCAKES CUPS. THESE RECIPES MAKE A LOT. THE DOUGH CAN BE FROZEN IF YOU HAVE TOO MUCH.
