Buckeyes Recipe

From Diana Rattray,

This candy is made with peanut butter, chocolate chips, and other ingredients. Allow about an hour for chilling time.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

PREPARATION:

With a hand-held electric mixer, beat peanut butter, butter and vanilla until smooth. Gradually beat in sugar and flour until well blended. Shape mixture into 1-inch balls; place on wax paper lined cookie sheet and refrigerate one hour or until firm.

Melt chocolate chips; one at a time, spear balls with toothpick and dip ball into the chocolate to cover most of it.

Place chocolate side down on cookie sheet, smoothing over or filling in toothpick gaps with more chocolate, if necessary. Refrigerate buckeyes for about 15 minutes longer, or until the chocolate is set. Store buckeyes tightly covered in refrigerator.

Makes about 5 dozen buckeyes candies.

So... are these the reason for your state's nickname?

No, the actual Buckeye is a nut.  These are peanut butter filled heaven!

Just remember our State motto above all else - "Birthplace of Aviation" and home to me.  Can't get any better than that!
