Buckeye Candy

This is an old candy recipe with my little twist added to it.

Good morning everyone! It’s a beautiful day in North Florida, this morning. I hope you have an awesome day!

I was thinking about old candy recipes this morning and I thought about this one. It’s kinda like Lays Chips. I bet, you can’t eat, just one!

This recipe makes a ton so be prepared to share with friends!

Box of Bakers Chocolate (8 squares, shaved up)

3 cups of powdered sugar and 1/2 stick of melted butter

1 -1/2 TBSP coconut oil 1/3 cup of Gulf wax or honey wax (shaved up)

1 1/2 cup peanut butter (your choice)

Mix the powdered sugar and peanut butter with the coconut extract in a mixer bowl. Add the melted butter and if you need to, add in water by the tablespoon, just so that mixture is not too dry. ( Note, when I made this I forgot to add the 1/2 stick of melted butter) and they were the bomb! So, you could leave it out!

Have a cookie sheet covered with buttered wax paper, ready. Put the bowl of peanut butter mixture into the freezer for 45 minutes to get firm.

Take out and roll into balls and put back in the freezer for later. Time to have a double boiler little pan on the stove now.

Put the shaved chocolate along with the coconut oil and shaved wax and slowly melt until well melted.

Get some toothpicks ready and a new cookie sheet pan that has butted wax paper on it. Put a toothpick in each ball of peanut butter goodness and swirl around in the melted chocolate. Place on the cookie sheet and back into the freezer for 30 minutes, until you are ready to store these in cookie tins. Keep cold.

I hope that you try this one. It’s a good one if I must say so. Thank you for your time today to stop by and visit me! Connie B.
