Buckeye Candy AKA Peanut Butter Bon Bons
- 6 cups confectioners’ sugar
- 2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 6 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- In the bowl mix together sugar, peanut butter, butter, and vanilla until slightly crumbly.
- Roll dough into One inch size balls.
- Place each ball on baking sheet lined with wax or parchment paper or tin foil; stick a toothpick into each ball.
- Chill in freezer for 1 hour.
- In saucepan, double boiler, over medium low heat melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth.
- Dip each ball into hot melted chocolate; leaving a small hole of the peanut butter dough showing on top of each ball, thus the “buckeye.”
- Let excess chocolate drip back into pot.
- Place buckeye back onto lined baking sheet.
- Repeat with rest of the balls.
