Buckeyes, also known as Peanut Butter Balls, have a smooth peanut butter center and chocolate shell. Make this simple buckeye recipe for your Christmas treat trays. This post has a ton of tips and tricks to making the perfect buckeyes. Be sure to read it all. 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUCKEYES AND PEANUT BUTTER BALLS?
In most recipes, the only difference is how they are dipped in chocolate. Buckeyes are only partially dipped in chocolate, leaving the peanut butter showing on the top. That way they look like the nuts from the buckeye tree. Peanut Butter Balls are traditionally covered in chocolate. (see the picture below.) This was one I messed up on and dipped the entire peanut butter ball in chocolate.

The actual process in simple, cream the peanut butter and butter until smooth. Then beat in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Roll into balls. Chill. Dip in Chocolate. Chill and enjoy. But there are a few handy tips I can give to make the process a bit easier.
