This recipe for Buckeyes from Kristen Bell is an Ohio classic. As she says, " I always made Buckeyes with my mom growing up. I made them in high school during sleepovers with my friends, and now I make them with my kids. It’s fun because they get their hands all chocolate-y, plus it’s a simple recipe — you really can’t blow it."
Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 2/3 cup organic creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups organic semi-sweet chocolate baking chips
- Flaky sea salt for garnish (optional)
Method
In a large bowl, mix together the butter, sugar and peanut butter.
Using about 1 tablespoon each, form and roll the mixture into small balls. Set the balls aside (I like to chill mine on a parchment-lined cookie sheet in the refrigerator) during the next step.
Using a double boiler or a saucepan plus a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate chips until smooth.
Dip your peanut butter balls into the chocolate to coat. Place the completed buckeyes back onto the parchment-lined cookie sheet and top with a few flakes of salt, if using.
Refrigerate for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the chocolate has set.
