They are buckeyes if they aren't completely covered in chocolate. I'm going to make these this morning. What a treat.

Andrea (Oregon) says:

These are great, but it really makes a difference what kind of peanut butter and chocolate you use. Tried making them with a generic peanut butter and thought they were good. Switched to Skippy peanut butter (based on some online peanut butter taste test reviews) and the results were fantastic!

M. Haggard (Texas) says:

I make these and some peanut butter you use is too oily. My family loves them, that is why I don't make them too often.

Jeannette (Wisconsin) says:

This recipe is excellent. The only thing I did different was put the mixture in refridgerator for awhile to make it easier to handle. I melted chocolate on stove and added parawax or you can add alittle lard to make the consistency of the chocolate smoother.

Mary (Ohio) says:

When making these add a little oil to the chocolate to make the buckeyes shiny or you can use paraffin wax.

Lisa (Ontario) says:

Love this recipe. One time when I was making it I didn't realize I was short 1 bag of chocolate chips and I had to go to the corner store because it was the only one open and they only had butterscotch chips so I tried it using 1 chocolate and 1 butterscotch and I won't make them any other way now.
