LINDA: Good Afternoon. Here is the actual recipe from the OHIO ST. Athetic Dep't.
COMES NOW:
Buckeyes
3 cups creamy peanut butter 1 cup softened butter or margarine. 2 pounds powered sugar 2 tsp vanilla extract 16 oz. milk chocolate for dipping purposes 3 tsp shortening.
Mix first 4 ingredients until well blended and form into small balls. Place them into the refrigerator to firm them, approximately 20-30 minutes.
Melt chocolate and shortening in a small bowl in the microwave oven or in a double boiler.
Using a toothpick or thin skewer, dip the balls in the chocolate, leaving part of the balls exposed on top- hey, look, a "BUCKEYE!!!!. Refrigerate or store in a cool dry area.
"GO BUCKS" I hope this helps you young Lady. ~Chef Dunask. |
