This isn't MY recipe as I'm not THAT good lol, but sure wish I would of thought of it! I know its just the normal Buckeye recipe just made into squares instead of balls but if your anything like me...I hated that process, could never get my buckeyes to look all pretty and uniform and I didn't like the hole it left in the middle from the tooth pick lol. I personally cut them into bite size, they were a hit at the Neighborhood Super Bowl Party of 2015!

yield 12 serving(s)
prep time 45 Min
method Refrigerate/Freeze

Ingredients For buckeye bars

  • 1/2 c
    unsalted butter
  • 1 lb
    jif peanut butter
  • 2 c
    powdered sugar
  • 2 lb
    semisweet chocolate chips

How To Make buckeye bars

  • 1
    Line 9x13 pan with parchment paper
  • 2
    Melt butter and add peanut butter, mix to combine.
  • 3
    Slowly add powdered sugar until you get a thick peanut butter mixture. It will remind you of really soft fudge and should hold together if rolled into a ball.
  • 4
    Melt 1 1/2 lbs of the chocolate chips and pour into the bottom of the parchment-lined pan. (I melt in microwave-easier not to burn, just check in 30 sec. intervals)
  • 5
    Let cool and harden, then press peanut butter mixture evenly over the chocolate.
  • 6
    Melt remaining chocolate, spread onto peanut butter, let harden. Cut into squares and Enjoy! Yummy!
