HOW TO MAKE BUCKEYES?
For this simple Buckeye recipe, only a few ingredients are needed. In a couple of minutes, these classic peanut butter candies come together and are dipped around a creamy peanut butter core in dark chocolate for a snappy shell.
Ingrediants
1+1/2 C. Of « peanut butter ».
1 C. Of softened butter.
1/2 TSP. Of vanilla extract.
6C. Of confectioners sugar.

DIRECTIONS:
STEP 1:
I used wax paper to line a large tray or a baking sheet.
STEP 2:
I mixed the confectioners’ sugar with peanut butter, vanilla and butter in a medium bowl, stirring until well blended.
STEP 3:
I rolled the peanut butter mixture into small balls and placed the balls on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
STEP 4:
I pressed a toothpick into the top of each ball and chilled for about 40 minutes in the freezer until firm.
STEP 5:
I put the chocolate chips in the microwave to melt, for about 60 sec.
STEP 6:
Then I dipped each peanut butter ball in chocolate using the toothpick.
STEP 7:
To make them look like Buckeyes, I leave a small amount of peanut butter showing at the end.

I placed the peanut butter balls coated with chocolate on wax paper and removed the toothpick.
STEP 9:
I refrigerated until set definitively. Then I served them, for storing, I let them in a jar in the fridge.
