Cream peanut butter, Crisco, and icing sugar together until smooth. Stir in peanuts and rice krispies. Mix well.

Shape into small balls. Chill until firm (recommend the freezer) for about an hour.

Melt chocolate and paraffin wax together until smooth. Do balls one at a time in chocolate mixture to cover. Let excess drop off then place on waxed paper. Decorate top with a half peanut if desired. Store in refrigerator.

Helpful hint: The paraffin wax sets the chocolate and gives it a nice shine
