Buckeyes

The cooking time refers to the melting of the chocolate. Nothing else requires cooking.

I agree. When you print the recipe it says prep time is 30 minutes and cooking time is 75 minutes

Everyone loved these! However, after following the recipe pretty exactly with the first batch, I decided to try something different with the next batch. Instead of using a fork with which to dip the peanut butter balls in to the melted chocolate (which was not ideal), I stuck holiday toothpicks in them (through the top) before I put them in the freezer. Then, when they were ready to dip into the chocolate, it was a cinch! I recommend using toothpicks instead of forks for the dipping. They turned out just like the photo, beautiful. Yum!

I made these with tahini to see if they really worked...and they did. I think, though that turnleft might have it right and a bit more nutty flavor with more nut butter might be a good thing to try. I will next time....and there will be a next time. I actually used german sweet chocolate, since that is all I had and it worked well. I think it depends on ones mood. I was mostly wondering if just melting the chocolate and dipping in it worked...and it did. Our preference for chocolate type is easily accomodated after that! Thanks for the great recipe! And yes...I think they are candy, not cookies...but fit my tastbuds just right, no matter the label!

Being a native Ohioan, I have made these for many years. Not nearly enough peanut butter! I have several recipes and for this amount of butter and sugar you need 16-18 oz. of peanut butter. I wouldn't use bittersweet chocolate either. Most people will prefer semi-sweet or milk.

No baking. It's a traditional candy.

Aren't these "Buckeyes" really "candy", since the only dry ingredient is sugar?? Hmmm....

Delicious and super easy! I only had natural peanut butter on hand but the texture was still very creamy.

Buckeyes are the best!!

no baking for these at all???
