Thanks for that tip, I was just thinking on how to use less sugar! My teeth hurt watching her stir it all in!!! Thought I might try it with powdered eurithritol.
Stephanie Jaworski, you are really the best when it comes to following your recipes! I am making these as well as your truffle rum balls and red velvet cake !! thank you so much !
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I made them last night and they were fantastic!! And you were right, it helps to get in with your hands at the end and keep adding a little more powdered sugar until firm.
Born & raised in the great state of OHIO, BUCKEYES are THE definitive candy ❤️❤️❤️ Good job Joy ! Love your recipes - you always give clear and concise instructions for your delicious assortment of recipes
Just made them yesterday and they are REALLY good! They are almost like a peanut butter cup, my whole family loved them! Be sure to make them pretty small like shown in the video (or under estimate the amount of "dough" you will use for the ball because it's a very rich treat). Also, make double sure your sugar is lump free. If you have to, whisk or use a sifter to take any lumps out of the sugar or you're going to have some major issues incorporating the sugar into the peanut butter (sounds pretty obvious now but I wasn't thinking it through when I made mine and I had to use a blender to get out most of the lumps, was a major pain lol). Lastly, as Stephanie says, make sure to melt enough chocolate when you dip your balls. I was surprised how much chocolate the balls picked up when I was dipping them and I had to make quite a few trips to the microwave to melt more chocolate for all of them. I found putting the balls in the freezer overnight and then dipping them made things so much easier, since the warm chocolate will make the balls too soft (and they will start to break) if they aren't frozen enough. They are definitely worth the effort though, will make them again! :)
Thank you, Stephanie for all your wonderful recipes and your beautiful personality. How you deliver them to us. We are very grateful and I just love how you make it simple for us to follow especially me. Have a wonderful day.🥰
Baking was probably the first "instructional" use of the internet for me, back a hundred years ago. I went through at least 30 sites, but Joy of Baking was always may first, and last choice. The recipes are laid out so perfectly, but I really like how some of the older recipes (eg yellow and white cake) are authentic to their origin. Stephanie is fantastic...the best, and perhaps the most educated baker on any media. I blow-away all my guy friends when i show up with these babies, while at the same time, make their wives hate their husbands just a little more. They are that good.
Going to try this for sure! Looks yummy! I might do part smooth and part chunky peanut butter depending on if I want the silky smooth texture of a truffle. Thankyou for this recipe!!
Merry Christmas Stephanie! This is the first recipe of yours that I made with great success this season in 2019. I have also made your fudge, coconut pie, peanut brittle, and truffles. Your videos also motivated me to get an induction hot plate and a Staub heavy duty sauce pan. You should get some kick backs.lol Thanks for sharing your talents.
This literally saved me so much money this year on Christmas presents. I just made a huge batch of these and get them out to friends and family. Thank you for this wonderful video.
Hi Joy,iv been doing your recipes lately,never did all this good stuff,but you make it easy to undrestand.im a firefighter that was injured by a drunk driver so because of the injuries im stuck at home with not to much limitation.but on my good days i get to try to make your goodies.just wanted to say thanks....Al
Believe me it works. I have made some very successful peanut butter cups with the mixture. Just take cupcake paper cups, pour melted chocolate in the bottom, then round and flatten the peanut butter into the shape of a round wafer, making sure you leave a thin gap around the wafer when placed on the bottom layer of chocolate, then add more chocolate. Very easy, and very delicious.
Everyone loves buck eyes ! Been making these for many years, we use chocolate chips and a little bit of wax with chips, also used more butter than this recipe but I'm going try this recipe and cut back the butter! Good project for kids in the kitchen, so proud they helped and shared with friends, nice gift for neighbors, mailman . We would use jelly size Mason jars and take Xmas material a cut a round that was Inch and half larger circle and put over pop lid and put ring over material screw it down it's very cute ! I also use a bit of ribbon and tie around cap and make a bow! It's really adorable!
Forgot about how easy they were to make im gonna make a batch & see if they turn out good. Haven't made these n years. Thanks for your video good easy recipe. I also use tooth picks n mine easy to pick up.
Hi Stephanie, have been a fan of yours for a long time. Thank you for the education you continue to do. This recipe was the first one of yours I tried. It and all the ones that followed were great successes at my household. I was upset today when Allrecipes posted a recipe for Buckeyes and you didn't get any credit. All the same ingredients, some different measurements, but exact down to the toothpicks. Just think they should have given you the credit.
We love your comments however due to our busy schedule questions on the recipes may take some time. We check our Facebook page more often so if you would like a quicker answer post your question there. A link to our Facebook page is in the description above.
I was going to say that. Room temp butter is fine. Get your hands in there and mix it up or if u have a stand mixer put the paddle on and let it do the work.
I've been waiting for this recipe to show up and I would like to thank you for this and making it look so easy, time consuming but delicious. A great treat for Christmas. Again, look forward to other receipts but WOW.... I love peanut butter and chocolate. God Bless.
I hate to bake, but I have to make a dish to bring to a belated Christmas Party we are having tomorrow. I have to say that this is such an easy project that even I can do it and it taste great! Thanks so much for showing the video because I do much better visually watching tutorials than to read it in a book. Thanks!
Love watching her & learning her tips. I like the way she scrapes every bit out of the bowl & utensils like I do. It bugs me when the other cooking shows leave lot's of food in the dishes. Yeah I'm ocd on that! 😅😅😅🤭🤫
Hello...I can do this thanks to you,,,I have learned much from you in just a short time ...I love learning from you , Thank you for teaching us well...I just LOVE it!, Bless you.
I was trying to cook some sweet for my kids, becouse of the weather the school is closed so i was looking something they can enjoy it and is something. I can't wait to bake!
I live in Ohio the Home of the Buckeyes,. The Buckeye candies are a big deal around here, especially during Football season! Only we always leave the end open so that it actually looks like a buckeye! That middle part makes great fast fudge too, just spread it in a bowel, then refregerate it untill the butter firms back up, then slice into squires! Not real fudge but not to shabby either, try it
Just made these they are fabulous except I didn't have a lot of time so I pressed the dough in a wax paper lined brownie pan and melted bakers semi sweet chocolate and spread ontop then cut into small squares and used small baking cups for each piece IMG_0426.jpeg
I've made these for years! and chocolate chips work great! if the batters sticky its probably too warm! and you should pop it in the freezer for like 5 minuets before you add the sugar or just don't microwave as long.
Thanks for sharing. Can I substitute shortening to virgin coconut oil? I will make this as Christmas present to my in-laws. Thanks and Merry Christmas. I always love your videos.
If you leave the peanut butter and butter at room temperature you don’t need as much sugar (which I prefer). Can also replace some of the sugar with milk powder. Could use honey instead. Can also blend in crushed graham crackers.
The use of grams makes the recipe consistent every time you make it. I often use grams so I get the same results every time I make something. The cups/spoons can vary so much. This recipe looks delicious. I can't wait to try it. 😋
My grandmother taught me how to make these when I was a girl. She used paraffin wax in the chocolate to make a harder shell. You used to be able to buy paraffin wax in a box at the grocery store but I have not seen it for decades. I use shortening now too.
Watching this video, and reading a few comments makes me feel like you really care about the people watching your videos, Very nice job! I will be trying this recipe soon I hope I get it right! Keep up the Good work, and my God Bless you.
I added a few tablespoons of coconut flour to hold back on amounbt of sugar. Worked like a dream. Good recipe, thanks.
Great idea for those of us watching our Blood sugar--like me--thanks so much
Thanks for that tip, I was just thinking on how to use less sugar! My teeth hurt watching her stir it all in!!!
Thought I might try it with powdered eurithritol.
I made these and I used room temperature butter thus eliminating the microwave, they are wonderful!!!
Stephanie Jaworski, you are really the best when it comes to following your recipes! I am making these as well as your truffle rum balls and red velvet cake !! thank you so much !
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I made them last night and they were fantastic!! And you were right, it helps to get in with your hands at the end and keep adding a little more powdered sugar until firm.

These nasty sugar bombs are a crime against humanity. I also live in Ohio and everyone gives these as gifts.

Put my balls in the freezer?
I made these for christmas this year and they were a hit (and delicious)!! Thank you!
I haven't made these since I was in Jr high school... over 30 years! now, I can make them again....thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Stephanie for all your wonderful recipes and your beautiful personality. How you deliver them to us. We are very grateful and I just love how you make it simple for us to follow especially me. Have a wonderful day.🥰
I substitute a good portion of the sugar with dry milk...came out bomb
I used to do that for my kids- lots more protein too!
Can you give me your recipe please
Eryka Lopez thanks for the tip. I think I’d prefer less sugar too.
Great idea
That's how Paula Dean makes hers
Forget all that. I'm just going to sprinkle chocolate chips over a scoop of peanut butter and indulge! 😋
Thinking the same thing
Yes, but that does not go over well at a party
love ur recipes u make it look so easy and u say everything in grams and cups keep up the good work
I fell in love with your channel after the first 30 seconds " we are gonna make CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER....
I made these yesterday and they came out great. Very easy to make. I used 70 % dark chocolate and they were fine. Thanks Stephanie
Always enjoy your demonstrations and your easy going manner. :)

I made some and threw some rice krispies in them. They turned out so good!! Popped them in the freezer...even good frozen :)
Going to try this for sure! Looks yummy! I might do part smooth and part chunky peanut butter depending on if I want the silky smooth texture of a truffle. Thankyou for this recipe!!
You made the best peanut butter balls in the world! WOW! Amazing maybe I’ll make them some day.
I love these! I'm going to have to try and make them again. Been years since I tried. Thanks for the video!

You can, although you may have to add more butter or oil if you find the mixture too dry.

oh my GOD. those looks amazing.
If you don't melt your peanut butter that far down , you wouldn't need that !much powdered sugar. ☺
Yes, there are much better buckeye recipes than this available.
I was going to say that. Room temp butter is fine. Get your hands in there and mix it up or if u have a stand mixer put the paddle on and let it do the work.
Freezing causes them to sweat and makes dipping the chocolate messy, you get a thicker more uneven shell and not as attractive.
Thanks for the tips.
yes. that is what I usually use when I make these, it works good. I even use white chocolate sometimes, which also works pretty good.
you are wonderful and I love the way ,you explain recipes.
Good Luck,
I've been waiting for this recipe to show up and I would like to thank you for this and making it look so easy, time consuming but delicious.
A great treat for Christmas. Again, look forward to other receipts but WOW.... I love peanut butter and chocolate. God Bless.
There is a link to the recipe in the description. On that page is a printer friendly version you can also print.

厲害啊，簡化了好多網上的食譜，以後我也要試試
Yes. There is a recipe on the website, however I haven't done a video yet.
Thanks for sharing. Ive done this recipe with Cashew butter as well. its great either way!
Love watching her & learning her tips. I like the way she scrapes every bit out of the bowl & utensils like I do. It bugs me when the other cooking shows leave lot's of food in the dishes. Yeah I'm ocd on that!
😅😅😅🤭🤫
Cant wait to try. And I agree with scraping every drop out of the bowl!
They will last about a month or two in the freezer. I always wrap them in foil and then place in a freezer bag.
Hello...I can do this thanks to you,,,I have learned much from you in just a short time ...I love learning from you , Thank you for teaching us well...I just LOVE it!, Bless you.
What a wonderful recipe, thank you Joy.

Making these for a Memorial Day party tomorrow. Thanks Stephanie!
Hi Stepahie, I made the peanut butter balls. They were absolutely delicious and a hit in my office. Thanks again for sharing the recipe.
Just made these they are fabulous except I didn't have a lot of time so I pressed the dough in a wax paper lined brownie pan and melted bakers semi sweet chocolate and spread ontop then cut into small squares and used small baking cups for each piece
IMG_0426.jpeg
Start to finish was about 25 min I chilled the pan in the freezer for 15 min awesome recipe
Melissa Bayduk.
Thanks melissa--I really like that suggestion--I will do it your way--
I really like suggestion
Awesome Time saving idea!
They look so pretty in my cookie assortment. I put "Chopped peanuts on top of the chocolate WOW...
SOOOO GOOD😉
I mix in a little shortening. You could use butter instead of the shortening though.
I tried these and they were amazing, be sure to try
Looks soo yummy!! So gonna try it!
I haven't tried making them yet but they look so good and i really want to try it soon
wow! those look so good right now.
They look yummy, I love peanut butter. Would think they are like the peanut butter cups you buy
I've made these for years! and chocolate chips work great! if the batters sticky its probably too warm! and you should pop it in the freezer for like 5 minuets before you add the sugar or just don't microwave as long.
Great video easy to follow. Thank you for saying both measurements!
I normally store them in the refrigerator, but they can also be frozen.
Thanks for sharing. Can I substitute shortening to virgin coconut oil? I will make this as Christmas present to my in-laws. Thanks and Merry Christmas. I always love your videos.
Wow!! You bake amazing food!!
Honestly the filling looked so good I just made some in a small bowl and ate it with a spoon haha. It was quite a little snack treat.
Best recipe and instructions I've been able to find for making these! Thank you!
Tried these they are awesome
I haven't made PB balls since I was in Jr HS... I've been looking for a good recipe...I look fwd to trying this one for Christmas!
can you make it without confectioners sugar
+Avery Tavern I have no idea...does anyone else know the answer?
Avery Tavern no
ITS PEANUT BUTTER BALL TIME
They look delicious! Thanks for the informative video. Will probably make some for Christmas for Family Buckeye Fans...
I want to try to make this I bet it taste good

Yes.
Shawn, these are fabulous!
I used chunky and it worked out just fine.
Even though I love peanut butter, I think that I will try cashew butter in this recipe. My mouth is watering!!
Jake Moeller that’s sounds amazing! Or even almond butter instead, I may buy the supplies to make all three! I’m dying over here oml!
I love you show.i saw it all the day, you explain very well, I am from France but I love in Miami, congratulations
they look soooo good
Lovely! Can't wait to make my own.
Looks good! Love peanut butter chocolate treats
omg i made these last night and brought them to work today and they were an absolute SMASH! everyone LOVED them!!!! =D thanks for sharing!!!
I think it is great that you give measurmemnts in grams as well; it includes us europeans to grasp the recipies properly. :) great videos! :)
The use of grams makes the recipe consistent every time you make it. I often use grams so I get the same results every time I make something. The cups/spoons can vary so much. This recipe looks delicious. I can't wait to try it. 😋
01:00 how DARE u tell me not to use the chunky!

The first syllable in your last name is accurate. Get a sense of humor.
***** She mocks my first name
LuKasAV6 haha ikr😅😒
Yup crunchy all the way nobody can stop us
LuKasAV6 me thinks it was a joke🤔 dont panic...
I love these, could eat them all 60! Great recipe, great vid, straight forward and clear explanation! Thanks! :-P
My grandmother taught me how to make these when I was a girl. She used paraffin wax in the chocolate to make a harder shell. You used to be able to buy paraffin wax in a box at the grocery store but I have not seen it for decades. I use shortening now too.
It's there in canning supplies. I know Smart n Final always had paraffin.
Kathryn McMorrow Publix, SweetBay and Ingles as well
@@abbeysomethingnormal7830 U can I imagine.

I love her! :)
❤ will be making a lot for 17 grandchildren
Thanks so much
