buckeye recipe

You&#x27;ll love these easy to make and DELICIOUS buckeyes, creamy, perfectly sweet peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate.

Buckeyes

peanut butter (smooth, 240 grams)

tbsp unsalted butter (70 grams)

sugar (240 grams)

tsp vanilla extract (5 milliliters)

semisweet chocolate (340 grams)

tbsp coconut oil (30 milliliters, optional)

Cream the peanut butter and butter together with the vanilla extract.

Add powdered sugar and mix on low until combined. Scrape down bowl and mix again.

Pinch off tablespoon sized pieces and roll into balls. About 20g if you&#x27;re weighing.

Transfer balls to a baking sheet and chill until firm. At least 20 minutes.

Add chocolate and coconut oil to a medium bowl and melt on 50% power in the microwave. Stir to combine and set aside to cool to room temperature.

Use a skewer or toothpick to dip the peanut butter balls into the chocolate. Leave a bit of the peanut butter exposed for that signature buckeye pea look.

Chill to allow the chocolate to firm up and enjoy. If you want to remove the holes left from the skewers, run a small knife or spatula over the tops.

Buckeyes are like peanut butter balls that didn’t get all the way dipped in chocolate. They’re no bake, SUPER-EASY to make and ultra snackable. As an added bonus you can make them in advance and pull them out of the fridge at a moment’s notice.

Easy Buckeyes Recipe

A simple Buckeye recipe for deliciously decadent peanut butter chocolate candies.

Easy Buckeye Recipe

peanut butter (not "natural" peanut butter) ((475 grams))

salted butter (softened (113 grams))

Tablespoons brown sugar* (packed)

vanilla extract

sugar

oz dark chocolate melting wafers ((340 grams))

Combine peanut butter and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until well-combined. &nbsp;

Add brown sugar and vanilla extract. &nbsp;Stir well.

Gradually add powdered sugar until completely combined. &nbsp;Scoop into Tablespoon-sized balls and roll with the palms of your hand until smooth and round.**

Place on wax-paper lined cookie sheet and freeze for 15-20 minutes. &nbsp;

While peanut butter balls are chilling, prepare your chocolate according to package instructions. &nbsp;Pour into a deep dish (I use a wide cup). &nbsp;

Remove peanut butter balls from freezer, spear the top of each peanut butter ball with a toothpick and, holding the toothpick, dip each buckeye ball into the melted chocolate.

Return to cookie sheet and remove toothpick. &nbsp;Use the pads of your fingers to smooth over the toothpick mark. &nbsp;

Allow chocolate to harden before eating and enjoying.&nbsp;

Buckeye balls are best kept refrigerated.

Buckeyes are the perfect no bake candy to make for the holidays! With a creamy peanut butter center and a sweet chocolate exterior, this easy buckeye recipe is a crowd favorite! Bonus - only a handful of ingredients are needed!

unsalted butter (room temperature)

½ cups creamy peanut butter peanut

salt

milk chocolate melting wafers (I used Ghirardelli)

chocolate chips

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

Cream butter and peanut butter together until smooth and completely combined, about 2 minutes.

Beat in the vanilla extract and salt.

Add 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar and mix on low speed until mostly combined and then increase the speed to high for one minute. Repeat twice more with 1 cup of powdered sugar each time. The mixture should be smooth, a little bit crumbly and should not stick to your fingers when you pick it up.

Scoop mixture, roll into 1 inch balls and place on prepared baking sheet.

Freeze balls for 30 minutes or until very firm. You can also refrigerate for 2 hours if freezer space is unavailable.

When peanut butter balls are just about ready, prepare the chocolate coating.

Combine chocolate melting wafers and chocolate chips in a shallow, microwave safe bowl and melt in the microwave in 30 second increments, at 50% power, stirring in between, until chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat the chocolate mixture.

Using toothpicks or wooden skewers, carefully dip the peanut butter balls into the melted chocolate leaving the top of the ball free of chocolate.

Wipe off excess chocolate on the side of the bowl and return the peanut butter balls to the parchment lined baking sheet.

Carefully twist the toothpick or skewer to remove. Smooth over the hole with additional peanut butter mixture or a slightly wet finger, or leave as is.

Repeat with remaining peanut butter balls until all balls have been dipped.

Let buckeyes sit until the chocolate has set up. Refrigerate buckeyes until ready to enjoy.
