We thoroughly enjoyed these peanut buttery, chocolaty treats. This recipe from Preppy Kitchen made them easy to make and delicious to eat!
Prep Time 15 minutes
Chill time 20 minutes
Total Time 8 minutes
Servings 24 buckeyes
Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter smooth
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Cream the peanut butter and butter together with the vanilla extract.
- Add powdered sugar and mix on low until combined.
- Pinch off tablespoon sized pieces and roll into balls.
- Transfer balls to a baking sheet and chill for 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 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.
Enjoy!
