A family friend provided us with this candy recipe and we have taken great pleasure in making and sharing it ever since. If you're an Ohioan then this chocolate delight is called BUCKEYES. Otherwise it is
2 cups peanut butter
1 lb. margarine at room temperature
2 tsp. vanilla
2½ to 3 lbs. powdered sugar
Popsicle sticks, optional
Mix peanut butter, margarine, and vanilla together.
Add powdered sugar. Mix well. Form into balls. Insert sticks if you chose to use them.
Chill in refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
COATING
6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate bits
3 tbsp. paraffin (grated)
Decorative candies/sprinkles, optional
Melt chocolate and paraffin in a double boiler. You may need more chocolate mixture to coat the balls than this recipe calls for.
Dip balls in chocolate and then candies/sprinkles. Place on waxed paper and allow to cool thoroughly.

Putting words and stories on paper is second nature to co-authors C.D. Hersh. They’ve written separately since they were teenagers and discovered their unique, collaborative abilities in the mid-90s. As high school sweethearts and husband and wife, Catherine and Donald believe in true love and happily ever after.
The books of their paranormal romance series entitled The Turning Stone Chronicles are available on Amazon. They also have a short Christmas story, Kissing Santa, in a Christmas anthology titled Sizzle in the Snow: Soul Mate Christmas Collection, with seven other authors. Also a standalone novella, Can’t Stop The Music, in a collection with thirteen other authors.
They look forward to many years of co-authoring and book sales, and a lifetime of happily-ever-after endings on the page and in real life.
