Steps:
- Combine the melted butter or margarine, confectioners' sugar, peanut butter and the vanilla together and mix well. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm. Roll into 1 inch balls and place on waxed paper.
- In the top half of a double boiler melt the chocolate chips and shortening, stirring constantly. Use a toothpick to dip balls into the melted chocolate, leaving a small uncovered area so balls resemble buckeyes. Place balls on waxed paper. Use fingers to blend in toothpick holes. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm. Enjoy!

BUCKEYE COOKIES III
These are like little peanut butter and chocolate balls. You basically mix it all up together. It is a perfect recipe to do at a sleepover or for parties. It is pretty simple and it really doesn't take too long. It takes about as long as chocolate chip cookies do, maybe a little longer, but if you love chocolate and peanut butter, you'll love this.

BUCKEYES I
This recipe is so good that I double it whenever I make it. Since it is peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate it is almost like candy. Real buckeyes are nuts that grow on trees and are related to the horse chestnut.

These chocolate peanut butter balls (no bake!) are always popular at my church's annual Christmas fundraiser. They resemble chestnuts or buckeyes-hence the name. -Merry Kay Opitz, Elkhorn, Wisconsin

BUCKEYES
Who doesn't love a confection inspired by nature? In this case, it's a peanut butter truffle dipped in chocolate, which resembles the nut from Ohio's state tree, the buckeye.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment. Beat the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, butter, vanilla and salt with an electric mixer in a medium bowl until well combined. Scoop 2-teaspoonful mounds, and roll into balls; arrange them on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.
- Microwave the chocolate and shortening in a microwave-safe medium bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Stick a toothpick or skewer into the top center of a peanut butter ball. Dip the ball into the melted chocolate, leaving a circle of peanut butter visible on top. Let the excess chocolate drip off, then return the buckeye to the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining peanut butter balls and chocolate.
- Chill the buckeyes until firm, about 30 minutes. Smooth out the hole left by the toothpick with an offset spatula. Serve at room temperature or well chilled. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
CHOCOLATE BULLSEYE BARS
I made these a couple of weeks ago for my grand kids and they loved them. I have dinner for them on Thursday Nights. They are all grown but still love to come to grand kid night. This is one of their favorite treats. I hope you will enjoy it too. You can use this recipe for a dessert or just a great snack and they will fit...

Steps:
- 1. In a large mixing bowl, add the cake mix, an egg and the oil. Beat with mixer until you have a nice crumbed mixture. Divide crumbs in half
- 2. In a 9x13 inch pan, press half of the mixture into the bottom, pressing well. On the top of the pressed crumbs, sprinkle half of the bag of chocolate chip chips and half of the nuts. In another bowl, mix condensed mix with the peanut butter. It will become very thick. This needs to be pressed over the nuts and chips. I had to butter my hands to spread it evenly. Spread the rest of the crumbs on top of mixture pressing well. Put in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
- 3. Melt the frosting in the microwave on high for one minute. Stir until pourable. Pour over the top of the baked dessert. Sprinkle the other half of the nuts and chocolate chips. Refrigerate after it cools. This is pretty hard to cut. It's almost like a candybar after it has set. So yummy. You can also substitute the chocolate chips for peanut butter chips.
