Easy Buckeye Recipe

• 活動時間: 15 minutes
• 總時間: 30 minutes

食材

2 cups creamy peanut butter (not "natural" peanut butter)

½ cup unsalted butter (softened)

2 Tablespoons light brown sugar (firmly packed (see note)

¼ teaspoon salt

1 ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

3 ¼ cups powdered sugar

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening

步驟

Combine peanut butter and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until well-combined.

Add brown sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well.

Gradually add powdered sugar until completely combined. Scoop into Tablespoon-sized balls and roll with the palms of your hand until smooth and round.**

Place on wax-paper lined cookie sheet and freeze for 15-20 minutes.

While peanut butter balls are chilling, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil (or vegetable shortening) and heat in the microwave in 25-second intervals (stirring well in between) until chocolate is smooth and completely melted. Pour into a deep dish (I use a wide cup).

Remove peanut butter balls from freezer, spear the top of each peanut butter ball with a toothpick and, holding the toothpick, dip each buckeye ball into the melted chocolate.

Return to cookie sheet and remove toothpick. Use the pads of your fingers to smooth over the toothpick mark.

Allow chocolate to harden before eating and enjoying (placing them in the refrigerator will speed up the process of the chocolate hardening!).
