 Buckeyes
Not sure why Ohio has the corner on the word
"buckeye", but if it has anything to do with these treats,
you'll become a fan.
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups sifted powdered sugar
2 (12-ounce) packages semisweet chocolate morsels
- Beat peanut butter and butter at medium speed of an electric
mixer until fluffy.
- Add vanilla, beating well.
- Gradually add sugar, beating until blended.
- Shape into 3/4-inch balls; place on ungreased cookie sheets.
- Insert a wooden pick into top of each ball.
- Freeze at least 2 hours.
- Place chocolate morsels in top of a double boiler; bring
water to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low; cook until chocolate melts, stirring
occasionally.
- Dip each frozen ball into chocolate, coating three-fourths
of ball.
- Place on wax paper-lined cookie sheets, and chill until
chocolate is set.
- Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.
Makes about 9 dozen.
Enjoy!
