PEANUT BUTTER LOVERS BUCKEYE CANDY

OH YUM!!! In today's video, Jill shows you how to make easy and oh-so-peanutty Buckeye Candy. They taste soooo much like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Enjoy this recipe -- it's a great gift to share with friends and family. RECIPE BUCKEYE CANDY Ingredients 1 ½ cup creamy peanut butter (I used old-fashioned peanut butter) ½ cup butter, dairy-free or other - softened 1 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla extract 3 ½ cup powdered sugar 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening - or solid coconut oil Instructions Line baking sheet with parchment paper In a large bowl, beat peanut butter, butter and vanilla extract until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar until well combined Shape into 1 inch balls and place on prepared baking sheet. Freeze for one hour or even overnight. In a microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips and shortening. Heat for approx 25 seconds, stir and continue heating for 10-15 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating and stop just before all chocolate is melted. Stir until completely melted. Remove several candy balls from the freezer, leaving the others in the freezer until ready to dip Using a toothpick, poke the toothpick on the top of the candy, dip balls into melted chocolate, covering about ¾ of the ball. Shake off excess and place on parchment or wax paper. With a toothpick, smooth over the hole from where the toothpick was in place for dipping. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Or freeze for up to 3 months Makes 47 1" candies Ways to Support My Channel Shop my Amazon Affiliate Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/jill4today Gift a "Super Thanks" to the Channel (info is right beneath the video.) 🛒 PLEASE VISIT MY AMAZON INFLUENCER SHOP: Be sure to check out my Amazon Affiliate Shop!
