From jones2888 3 years agoIngredients
- 2 cups creamy peanut butter (not "natural" peanut butter) (475g) shopping list
- 1/2 cup salted butter softened (113g) shopping list
- 2 Tablespoons brown sugar* packed shopping list
- 1 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract shopping list
- 3 1/4 cups powdered sugar (405g) shopping list
- 1 12- ounce package chocolate chips dark, milk, or semisweet shopping list
- 2 teaspoons vegetable shortening or coconut oil shopping list
How to make it
- Combine peanut butter and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until well-combined.
- Add brown sugar and vanilla extract. Stir well.
- Gradually add powdered sugar until completely combined. 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.
- While peanut butter balls are chilling, prepare your chocolate according to package instructions. Pour into a deep dish (I use a wide cup).
- 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. Use the pads of your fingers to smooth over the toothpick mark.
- Allow chocolate to harden before eating and enjoying.
- Buckeye balls are best kept refrigerated.
- *Melt chocolate and shortening in a double boiler, or use the microwave. Microwave on 50 percent power for 15 seconds, stirring mixture after each 15 second period until completely melted and liquidy.
