BEST BUCKEYES (PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CANDIES) RECIP…



Best Buckeyes (Peanut Butter and Chocolate Candies) Recip… image

I make about 30 varieties of cookies and candies during the holidays and these are the most requested. They are fairly easy and delicious. I serve them on a tray in miniature muffin liners. I have tried many different buckeye recipes, but this one, given to me years ago, is the best one I have used. ADDED 12/17/06: Instead of chips and paraffin wax, this year I used chocolate bark coating and it worked really well. You will need about Five - 2 oz. blocks of bark.

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 45 minutes

Yield 80 Buckeyes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (18 ounce) jar creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup butter (softened) or 1/2 cup margarine (softened)
1 lb confectioners' sugar (about 3.5 cups)
1 tablespoon vanilla
12 ounces chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet)
3 -4 ounces paraffin wax (I use 1/4 of a standard block)
use 1/2 tsp of shortening per oz of chocolate instead paraffin wax

Steps:

  • Cream peanut butter and butter.
  • Add sugar and vanilla and mix well.
  • Form into 1 inch balls and refrigerate.
  • Melt chocolate chips with parafin wax in a double boiler.
  • Dip balls into chocolate with a toothpick about 3/4 of the way covered.
  • Place chocolate side down on waxed paper.
  • Let set at room temperature or refrigerate.
