Categories     Desserts

Yield 6 balls

Number Of Ingredients 4

½ cup melted butter, melted
1 ½ cups peanut butter
2 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 cup chocolate chips, enough for dipping

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!

No-Bake Peanut Butter, Chocolate and Pretzel Bars image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
About 1 1/2 cups pretzel sticks

Steps:

  • Line an 8- or 9- inch square baking pan with foil.
  • Melt 8 tablespoons of the butter and add to a large bowl. Add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, vanilla and 1 cup of peanut butter and stir until well combined. Transfer the peanut butter mixture to the prepared baking pan and smooth with an offset spatula to create an even layer.
  • Combine the chocolate chips, the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the remaining tablespoon peanut butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted. Alternatively, this can be done over a double boiler. Pour the chocolate mixture over the peanut butter and smooth with an offset spatula. Arrange the pretzel sticks on the surface of the chocolate, pressing them lightly to adhere. Refrigerate until hardened, about 1 1/2 hours. Cut into squares to serve.

Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter for a smooth texture.
  • If the mixture is too thick to stir, add a little milk or water.
  • Chill the mixture for at least 2 hours before shaping.
  • Roll the balls in chopped peanuts or chocolate chips for extra flavor.
  • Store the candies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
