Put a toothpick into each one and refrigerate at least 45 minutes to an hour.Next, melt paraffin and chocolate in top of a double broiler. Dip the balls, remove the toothpicks, and refrigerate. Don't let the balls touch each other until after the chocolate/paraffin mixture has hardened.

These are also my late Aunt Margaret’s holiday favorite. She would make them and give them as gifts for Christmas. All the kids in our family looked forward to having these each and every year. Now we continue the tradition since she has passed away, and our children love to get them also. These are my most favorite dessert to make (and eat!!!) around the holidays! You must try these.
