One of America's Favorite Christmas Treats - Buckeyes


Buckeye candy (also referred to simply as buckeyes) is a confection made from a peanut butter fudge partially dipped in chocolate to leave a circle of peanut butter visible. Buckeyes are similar to peanut butter balls (or peanut-butter-filled chocolate balls), which are completely covered in chocolate.

Named for their resemblance to the nut of the Ohio buckeye tree, the state tree of Ohio, this candy is particularly popular in Ohio and neighboring states.

It is common for Ohioans to make buckeyes at home, but they are also available in mail-order catalogs and candy shops.

The Old Family Buckeye Recipe



It's that time of year when the requests start coming in for my Mom's Buckeyes. Back when I was working I wasn’t one to switch jobs too often. A total of three full time jobs during that time. It’s been 9 years since I lost my leg to melanoma cancer and unable to work but to this day I still get request’s from fellow past workers and friends for my Mom’s Buckeyes. It seems that everyone that has had them all say the same thing “The best Buckeyes I’ve ever had!” I think it’s the Rice Krispies that sets them apart from other Buckeye Candies.  I’m sure you’ll agree, let me know! These are not diabetes friendly but are delicious. We tried making them by using reduced fat Peanut Butter and Sugar Free Chocolate but they just didn’t come out the same.


Ingredients:
