what is the recipe to make buckeyes?

Answer 1

Buckeyes

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
6 cups confectioners' sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS
Blend peanut butter, sugar, butter, and vanilla. (Dough will look dry).
Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet.
Poke a toothpick into the top of each ball (to be used later as the handle for dipping) and chill in freezer until hard (1/2 hour).
Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler (use very low heat, not much hotter than tap water or the chocolate will get grainy. This will take awhile).
Dip frozen peanut butter balls in chocolate holding onto the toothpick. Leave a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like Buckeyes.
Put back on the wax paper lined cookie sheet and refrigerate 2 hours.

Answer 4

Ohio State Buckeye Candy

1 cup creamy peanut butter
4 ounces plus 3 tablespoons softened butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 1/2 to 4 cups confectioners sugar, about 1 pound
1/2 cup very fine graham cracker crumbs
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
PREPARATION:
With a wooden spoon or large mixer with paddle attachment, beat peanut butter, butter and vanilla until smooth. Slowly stir or beat in confectioners' sugar and graham cracker crumbs. Mixture will be dry, but will hold together when shaped into balls.
Shape mixture into 1-inch balls; place on wax paper lined cookie sheet and chill in freezer or until firm.
Melt chocolate chips over hot water. Spear a peanut butter ball with toothpick or dipping fork and dip ball into the chocolate to cover most of it. Place chocolate side down on cookie sheet. If desired, leave the top uncovered to resemble the Ohio buckeye nuts. If desired, drizzle more butter over the balls to fill in gaps made by toothpick or dipping fork. Refrigerate buckeyes for about 2 hours or longer, or until the chocolate is set. Store buckeyes tightly covered in refrigerator or freezer.

Makes about 5 dozen buckeye candies.

Answer 6

1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1/2 cup margarine or butter
1 lb powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
Crisco

Mix peanut butter, margarine or butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla in bowl (It helps to soften the margarine).
Shape into 1" balls.
Refrigerate balls.
Meanwhile, melt chocolate with a bit of crisco (so the chocolate will harden. Without crisco, chocolate will remain soft.) in double boiler.

Cool on wax paper and store in refrigerator or freezer.
