In a large bowl, mix together peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and the confection sugar. The dough will look dry, roll into a 1 inch ball, and place on wax paper or a foil on a pan.

Press a tooth pick into the top ball (to be used for a handle in dipping them), let them chill in the freezer for about 30 minutes.

Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler, or in a bowl set on top of a pan with water that is simmering, stir frequently until smooth.

Dip frozen peanut butter balls in the chocolate holding onto the tooth pick, leave a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like buckeyes, put back onto pan, put In fridge until chocolate is cool.

After cooling eat up!
