Buckeyes

 

http://images.allrecipes.com/site/allrecipes/area/community/userphoto/big/1255.jpg

 

Original recipe yield: 5 dozen.

 

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups peanut butter

6 cups confectioners' sugar

1 cup butter, softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

 

--------------------------------------------------------

 

DIRECTIONS:

Blend peanut butter, sugar, butter, and vanilla. (Dough will look dry).

 

Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet.

 

Poke a toothpick into the top of each ball (to be used later as the handle for dipping) and chill in freezer until hard (1/2 hour).

 

Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler (use very low heat, not much hotter than tap water or the chocolate will get grainy. This will take awhile).

 

Dip frozen peanut butter balls in chocolate holding onto the toothpick. Leave a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like Buckeyes.

 

Put back on the wax paper lined cookie sheet and refrigerate 2 hours.

 

I add a little baking wax (Gulf Wax)to the Chocolate chips, it helps it harden quicker in the fridge. These are just plain YUMMY!

We make sausage balls for breakfast every year. My husband now eats low carb so I modified the recipe and we like it even better than the original.

 

Original

 

1 roll of breakfast sausage

2 cups grated cheddar cheese

3 cups baking mix (like Bisquick)

 

Knead ingredients together until well mixed. Roll into walnut-sized balls and place on lightly greased baking sheet. Cook at 375 for 15-20 minutes until lightly browned.

 

 

Low Carb

 

1 roll of breakfast sausage

2 cups grated cheddar cheese

1 1/2 cups whole wheat baking mix (we use Hodgson Mills)

 

We like them best with hot sausage and sharp cheddar cheese. :1cook:

 

I LOVE sausage balls!!! We have them at parties at work. I've never tried them with the whole wheat though. That's a great idea. :)

I don't bake, but some of these recipes got me wanting to try them. I WILL attempt the buckeyes though

If you want any others, I might already have them somewhere. I have a HUGE recipe section on my messageboard. :D

Posted
If anything is easy to make I'll try it this year. I don't bake and not very good at it so the easier the better. Its weird because I can make dinner ideas from scratch and cook hard recipes for dinners, but when it comes to desserts, Im lost. I swear I could burn cupcakes. Hence why I bought them for my kids' Halloween parties. I could never understand that
