So, this is the reason why I haven’t been posting as often, but I am happy to say I am back with a vengeance! I will keep you up to date on all this cookbook in the month’s come up to its release, but until then let’s get cooking!

Today I have these in-cred-i-ble truffles. Yes, peanut butter Oreo truffles!!

But, did I just stop there? Oh no.

To make these more into buckeyes I dipped them in a peanut butter + white chocolate coating and then dipped everything in melted milk chocolate… GIMME!

So, what do you think… can you are you excited to try these buckeyes?

How to make Buckeyes:

Process Oreos in a food process

Add in cream cheese and process some more

Scoop onto a parchment lined cookie sheet and freeze

Melt white chocolate and peanut butter together in a bowl- stirring to make it smooth

Dip all the truffles in the peanut butter mixture and let harden

Melt chocolate chips and dip half of the truffles in the melted chocolate

Let harden and enjoy!

I know there are so many buckeyes recipes out there- but this my favorite! Easy and delicious!

Make sure to set aside a good chunk of time before making these though, after making the truffle interior they have to set up in the freezer for at least 4 hours.

What is a buckeye?

A buckeye is actually a nut from a tree! It is a shiny dark brown nut with a light patch on top! Pretty cool right?! However, they are now commonly a delicious truffle dessert that only resembles the nut in name and appearance but does not actually use the nut in the recipe.

Do buckeyes need to be refrigerated?

I recommenced storing extra buckeyes in an air tight container in the refrigerator. Since we used cream cheese in the filling it is a safe bet they should stay refrigerated.

How do you dip buckeyes?

I like to use a fork or slotted spoon to lower the truffle into the peanutbutter mixture and roll it around. You can also use a tooth pick inserted into the top!
