One of my favorite candies to make it is simple to make and the adults really love them! Kidz find them great as well so everyone for themselves.

In a bowl, combine first four ingredients. (I do this by hand to avoid icing sugar dust going everywhere.)
Add milk and mix well.
Roll into 1 inch balls and placed on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Chill for 20 minutes.
Flatten with a glass to 1/4 inch. Chill for 30 minutes.
In a double bolier or microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate and shortening. Dip patties and place on waxed paper to harden. It is important not to make the chocolate too hot or the patties will melt when you dip them. I use very low heat and melt the chocolate slowly.
