How to make peanutty-cocoa bonbons:

Beat cream cheese and milk until fluffy in large mixer bowl. Blend in confectioners sugar, cocoa and vanilla. Stir in nuts. Cover and chill until firm enough to handle overnight, then shape into 1 inch balls. Place on wax paper-lined trays. Chill uncovered 3 to 4 hours. They should feel dry to the touch before coating.

To coat, melt peanut butter chips and shortening in top of double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Stir to blend. Dip chilled centers into mixture, coating well, then place on wax paper-lined trays. Chill 1 hour, uncovered. Store in cool, dry place. Makes 6 dozen.
