Steps:
- Mix butter, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until well blended. More or less powdered sugar can be used to make mixture more or less dry.
- Make 1 inch balls and freeze for about 20 minutes or until firm.
- Microwave chocolate chips for 60 seconds, stopping every 15 seconds to check and stir. Adding some vegetable shortening can make the chocolate thinner and easier work with.
- Remove balls from freezer and dip most of the way into the chocolate, coating all but a small circle on top. Using a toothpick for this works well but simply dipping it in and pulling it out with a fork also works. Place completed buckeyes on wax paper and allow to harden. Refrigerate if needed.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
- Make sure the peanut butter is smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, it will be difficult to spread.
- If you don't have a baking dish, you can use a 9x13 inch pan. Just be sure to line it with parchment paper so the bars don't stick.
- Chill the bars for at least 2 hours before cutting them. This will help them set and make them easier to cut.
- Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
