I grew up in Ohio. These Buckeye candies are a tradition there. If you don’t know what a buckeye is it’s a useless nut that’s found on a tree. The candies above resemble what they look like, hence the name! But what’s not to like…they are peanut butter and chocolate! One of the best combinations in the history of food!
My husband always requests these at least a few times a year. I normally have to make them when there is a big Ohio State football game on! But these are great around the Holidays. Make a batch and add them to your cookie plates! You won’t have any complaints!
Enjoy!
These are naturally Gluten-Free, but always double check your ingredients to be sure
I make the same , but instead I dip the whole cookie in the melted chocolate
My hubby is from Xenia. He introduced me to these candies by supplying the recipe and requesting I make them. They are a MUST have during football season.
