Cream the butter, powdered sugar, peanut butter, and vanilla. Form into small (buckeye-sized) balls and refrigerate overnight. Melt the chocolate chips and paraffin in the top of a double boiler. Stick a toothpick in the candy ball and dip it in the chocolate mixture. Leave part of the ball uncovered so that it resembles a buckeye, and smooth over the toothpick hole. Place on waxed paper to cool and harden. These candies can be frozen.
Editor's Extra: Paraffin takes longer to melt than chocolate, so start it melting first. This can be made without paraffin—softer, but equally delicious.
