I have made these every Christmas for the past 6 years! Everybody "rants and raves" about them and always wants the recipe. I add just a touch more powdered sugar, roll them into balls and place on a cookie sheet, put in freezer for 10 min (they will be so easy to dip once cold and the chocolate will harder quickly). I also use the milk chocolate melting wafers from Michaels or AC Moore(their chocolate tastes better than melting the chocolate chips). I am now famous for making these! 5 stars

Really good and really easy. Working with melted chocolate for the first time wasn't easy. When making these again, will make them 1/2 size as they are really, really rich. 4 stars

Would make this again.
Love these!! A little messy to make, I just use my fingers to dip partially in the chocolate. Makes about 50, depending on how big you make them. Delicious! 5 stars

Would not make this again.
Not sure what I did wrong! The dough was too soft to use a toothpick or fork to dip into chocolate. It was a mess. 1 star
