Okay, so this isn’t exactly a “Christmas” candy….but I like it. Any time you pair peanut butter and chocolate together, I’m there in the middle of that. These make great gifts and look wonderful on a Christmas dessert table……if they make it to the table. Sometimes I hide them and just magically find them after the holidays. “Oh well, guess I’ll have to eat these. Bummer.” What is a buckeye anyway? It’s a nut from the buckeye tree. It looks just like this. It’s called this because it resembles, wait for it…………….a buck’s eye. Bet you didn’t see that coming. The buckeye is the state tree of Ohio, but you can enjoy these treats anywhere – and you should. Let’s make ‘em! |

Ted wanted peanut butter balls, but I didnt have any wax for the chocolate. I did have some choc almond bark so I made these instead. So much easier and I think he liked them better.
Great! We like them better than PB Balls.
In the time you melt the chocolate in the microwave you say 15 minute intervals. I think you mean seconds, not minutes. 🙂
Thanks! 🙂 I’ll fix that right now.
