I got this recipe from my Mother. She made this every Thanksgiving and Christmas. The recipe was obtained from a church cookbook from Guin, AL.

Steps:
- 1. Mix butter, sugar, sweetened condensed milk together in a large mixing bowl. Add coconut, pecans and vanilla, mix well. Chill for about 1 hour.
- 2. Remove from refrigerator and form mixture into small round balls using your hands. Place on a large cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Continue until all the mixture is gone. Chill again for about 30 minutes. This makes it easier to handle during dipping.
- 3. While mixture is chilling, using a double boiler, melt chocolate chips and add the paraffin wax to the chocolate chips.
- 4. Dip the candy into the warm melted chocolate using a tooth pick and set on cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Allow to cool and then place into candy dish or box.
