Preparation

Step 1

Mix vanilla frosting mix, cherry frosting mix, maraschino cherries, condensed milk and powdered sugar. Roll into very small balls and freeze.

Melt semi-sweet chips and paraffin together then add peanuts to chocolate mixture. Dip frozen balls into the chocolate mixture and place on wax paper to dry.

Hints: Use a bamboo skewer for dipping balls into chocolate. Also dust hands with powder sugar when rolling mixture into small balls - this helps mixture from sticking to your hands.
