Best Buckeyes (Peanut Butter and Chocolate Candies)
fromfood.comwww.food.com/amp/recipe/best-buckeyes-peanut-butter-and-chocolate-candies-26555
I make about 30 varieties of cookies and candies during the holidays and these are the most requested. They are fairly easy and delicious. I serve them on a tray in miniature muffin liners. I have tried many different buckeye recipes, but this one, given to me years ago, is the best one I have used. ADDED 12/17/06: Instead of chips and paraffin wax, this year I used chocolate bark coating and it worked really well. You will need about Five - 2 oz. blocks of bark.
