EASY Buckeyes Recipe

[@laurenskee2665]

John, i dont know if you know this. But the childrens toy "little people" makes a character that looks like your twin! He is even a baker. My daughter and i have named him John!

[@shaynahanus4034]

You’re right! Glasses and all! 😄👍🏼

[@cherylg5002]

I absolutely love these! For some extra texture I put some Rice Krispies in the peanut butter!

[@jesswinter]

I love this idea! How much rice krispies do you add?

[@GTMonica]

I make Buckeyes for my niece every year and she also loves rice crispies. How much would you add to this recipe?

[@BLTkitchen]

This is genius

@@jesswinter thank you! Honestly I just kind of eye balled the last time and didn’t measure.

Was just in Ohio for a wedding and was so sad I wasn’t able to pick up any of these while there! Def making my own now, thank you :D

I was just thinking about Buckeyes and now here is a video. I believe John is clairvoyant!

Christmas time they are everywhere here in Ohio

From the south. And have never heard of this before. Definitely want to try this recipe.

Ohioan here, thanks for sharing! I make these for Christmas gifts, we do love them! ❤🎄

[@glendaharding4884]

What a great Christmas treat!!

[@melissamoore9764]

Hi ! I am from Ohio. It is Ohio these candies come from. Bc of the buckeye nuts. My Mom taught my sisters and I how to make Buckeyes when we were very young. Our recipe is a regular size jar of peanut butter powdered sugar and a stick of butter to make the peanut butter balls. A whole bag of semi sweet chocolate chips for the dipping chocolate. Always use a double boiler. Going to make Buckeyes this Saturday. Very yummy!

[@patschrull425]

Yum! Love Buckeyes!! My church makes them every year before Thanksgiving. Going to try and make them for Christmas presents this year! Merry Christmas!! 🌲❄⛄😀

[@StevenClarkrk]

Simply wonderful! Thank you for your passion for what you do! 💕😚

[@patbuegeler7770]

I feel like some sea salt in the chocolate would just be even more amazing... Thanks for the recipe! ❤

Oooo yes that sounds so tasty

"Such a simple and delightful recipe! Buckeyes are always a hit, and this looks like the perfect version to try. Thanks for sharing this sweet treat!

My absolute favorite chef! I love making your recipes and am hoping to get your cook books for Christmas this year!

Born n raised in Springfield OH. Been making these Buckeyes for decades. ❤🎉🥰🏆👍 Making some soon.

I lived in Columbiana for 15 years. Loved it.❤

[@kinjunranger140]

Is this the same recipe that you use? Mine is slightly different.

[@libbyvalley]

@kinjunranger140 😊♥️ The original recipe called for shaved paraffin. 😳😂 I too switched to coconut oil. I put the balls in the freezer before dipping in chocolate. The colder the better. Gotta eat those ones that drop in the chocolate. 😁👍

[@kinjunranger140]

@@libbyvalley Gotcha. paraffin is what we used in the 70's also. I never liked them because of that. I am your neighbor to the west.

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Thank you for the video!

[@Roamie92]

I sometimes make these around Christmas, but with homemade almond butter instead of peanut butter, because my cousin, who comes by for Christmas, has a really bad peanut allergy. The almond version is very good as well!! Thanks for the great video :)

[@sherry2519]

Yeah! My great state of Ohio! I love the homemade ones, commercial ones, not so much.

[@snickerspayne4929]

Yum!!!!!! Can’t wait to make these. You make everything look easy. Thank you so very much 😊

[@b.c.3577]

I LOVE THESE! LOOKS SO EASY, DEFINITELY GOING TO TRY. THANKS.✌

[@cathrinewhite7629]

I put a 50ml (airlines size) bottle of Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey in each batch. The liquor gives it a complexity that everyone remarks about- but can't identify😅. I also prefer 70% dark chocolate for the shell; it offsets the sweetness from the powdered sugar. ❤

[@lachauntiswashington231]

They look yummy 😋 ❤

It loooks sooo gooood, i will try it this Christmas dinner ☺️

I just realized this is what my family makes every year at Christmas, but we call them peanut butter balls 😅 Creative, lol. But we always add Rice Krispies to the PB mixture, and melt Gulf wax into the chocolate, and cover the whole ball.

My MawMaw was from Ohio and she used to make these. They are so good!

[@kevinscott1547]

I didn't even know about these before watching this video. Then again I'm from Chicago, Illinois.

[@idris639]

From the Uk , are buckeyes conkers , because that makes a very acceptable conker

[@samanthasmith1209]

I’m giggling at the fact that you filled the little toothpick hole. It looks so funny without It to me haha. I grew up in Cincinnati and make hundred’s of these every year.

[@iceman_210]

Buckeyes are sooooo good, especially with dark chocolate! However they seem to be scared of Wolverines for some reason. 😏

[@Vulcanerd]

This looks fantastic and right up my alley, but I was wondering if you could do this with crunchy peanut butter? I prefer crunchy and I like the idea of having some peanut bits in them.

[@Craxin01]

I'm a big fan of chocolate and peanut butter. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are my kryptonite.

Georgia... Peanut state❤

[@BreadMachineVideosWithEllenH]

I love you and your channel! I have two questions directly relating to my allergies to tree nuts including coconut. 1. I use a (tree nut free) peanut butter that is only peanuts and salt. The company is CBs nuts. How do I compensate? It is also slightly crunchy. They call it “Creamunchy.“ 2. I can’t use coconut oil in the chocolate. What is an acceptable alternative?

[@moranthang9482]

For 2: Palmoil (the stuff that hardens)or other vegetable shortening are options. The idea is to add an oil to it, which is melts easy, but is hard at room temperature without adding other stuff like butter would do...or a strong taste. But you dont have to use that..its just to make it easier to work with the chocolate.

[@timothylopez8572]

🤣😂"Chef's salty chocolate balls"

[@TheMadAsHatter]

Can you use chunky peanut butter?

[@jessicathomas7592]

I'm trying to cut out cane sugar. Would coconut sugar work instead?

I’m allergic to peanuts, like a lot of people. Do you think this combo might work with cashew or almond butter? I’ve never baked with either. Thanks!

[@jessicaharris1608]

I've made my family's version of this Buckeyes recipe with sunflower butter for someone who is allergic to nuts.

[@shella96]

What can you use instead of coconut oil? (Allergy)

[@Kitchensinkandmore]

Just consumed one...okay ...two I ate two 😜🙃😁

[@amyspeers8012]

I have developed a peanut allergy. Can I use SunButter to make these? I used to make them and miss making them.

[@jessicaharris1608]

I've made my family's version of buckeyes with sunbutter for someone allergic to nuts before.

[@priyankarajdev5672]

Is it chocolate compound?

[@notyourfavlena]

Is this a Christmas dessert? I’ve never heard of it?

[@kellyhammerrealtorcentury2964]

Can you use something else besides coconut oil?

[@DubuSweetie]

Coconut oil combines well with chocolate maybe any other oil can work too

[@DonaldTurner-w5l]

Thanks for the forecast! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

[@debils4546]

Oh thanks I mustve missed it.

[@innamakarov1385]

Ohio, of course 😄

[@anticlickbait]

Are they crunchy like cookies? 😮

[@jessicaharris1608]

No. They shouldn't be crunchy. They're a homemade candy. If someone wanted these to be crunchy, you'd have to add something crunchy like rice crispies. I've never tried that, so I don't know how much to add.

[@anticlickbait]

@jessicaharris1608 Gotcha. Thank you 😄

[@jessicaharris1608]

@anticlickbait They're a bit like a Reeses peanut butter cup. I haven't made John's recipe, but my family has a very similar recipe for Buckeyes that I have made. The chocolate shell/outside layer might be considered crisp, but crunchy means something different to me. Perhaps crunchy peanut butter or adding rice crispies could make it crunchy if that's a goal for you. Myself, I find them lovely just as is, no modifications needed.

O!! H!! I!! O!!

[@divergentone7491]

Im from Ohio and been making these since I was a little kid. Never put vanilla in the buckeyes and the peanut butter and butter should be equal 1:1. I make these every year and give out to my California neighbors that seem to love them as much as my family.

[@AngelaRussellll]

Very interesting material, keep it up! 👄😻👅

Maybe we can corrupt the recipe and use it for Halloween... Changing for white(painted) chocolate right?

LOL Last two weeks!
