Step 1

Combine peanut butter and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until well-combined.

Step 2

Add brown sugar and vanilla extract. Stir well.

Step 3

Gradually add powdered sugar until completely combined. Scoop into Tablespoon-sized balls and roll with the palms of your hand until smooth and round.**

Step 4

Place on wax-paper lined cookie sheet and freeze for 15-20 minutes.

Step 5

While peanut butter balls are chilling, prepare your chocolate according to package instructions. Pour into a deep dish (I use a wide cup).

Step 6

Remove peanut butter balls from freezer, spear the top of each peanut butter ball with a toothpick and, holding the toothpick, dip each buckeye ball into the melted chocolate.

Step 7

Return to cookie sheet and remove toothpick. Use the pads of your fingers to smooth over the toothpick mark.

Step 8

Allow chocolate to harden before eating and enjoying.

Step 9

Buckeye balls are best kept refrigerated.
