This recipe was given to me years ago by Toby's sister-in-law. Although they are super yummy, unless you have a small village to help you roll the peanut butter balls, I'd recommend you drastically cut this recipe down. I don't remember exactly how many it makes, but it's gotta be somewhere in the neighborhood of 1 million...ok, I exaggerate...it makes about 900,000 ;) However, if you are making candy for a lot of people, this is great recipe for making lots of candy on a budget.
