Chocolate Buckeyes Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 stick household paraffin wax
- 2 sticks butter (softened)
- 12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 lb. confectioners sugar
- 2 cups peanut butter, creamy
Instructions
- Line 2 cookie sheets with waxed paper.
- Melt butter and add to peanut butter and sugar; stir. Take a teaspoon full and work with hands to shape into balls and then put on baking sheet. Place baking sheet with dough in freezer for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Melt paraffin and chocolate chips together on low heat in microwave. I prefer to do it with double boiler by putting water in a pan and placing a Pyrex bowl onto of the pan. If you do it this way, be sure that the water doesn’t actually touch the bowl or it will burn the chocolate.
- Take dough from freezer and place a toothpick into the balls and dip ¾ of the ball into chocolate mixture. Put balls back onto waxed paper to cool.
- Once the buckeyes are made, you can place back into freezer to harden. Once the Buckeye is hardened you can stick into a Ziploc bag or container and store up to 3 months.
