Hi Whalen.

When I saw your post, I pulled out every local cookbook that I have and could not find the recipe for Buckeyes. But I sure know what you are talking about. And it is probably a very good thing that I do not have the recipe. I think they are really easy to make and I would probably make them every other day and eat them all. Even though I am prone to hyperbole, that statement is probably not too far off, at least on a bad day anyway. They are like the best Reese's Cup ever.

A friend brought us some Buckeyes at Christmas.

So if no other Buckeye beats me to it, I will catch up with that recipe and post it. It may take me a few days so maybe somebody will have already found it. I wonder if GG has the recipe.

I am glad you liked them. They are made to look like the Buckeyes from the tree.
