Organic Cinnamon Buckeye Balls
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups/375 mL smooth peanut butter
1 cup/250 mL butter, softened
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins All Natural Original Gourmet Baking Vanilla®
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon
6 cups/1,500 mL confectioners' sugar
4 cups/1,000 mL semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup/250 mL butter, softened
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins All Natural Original Gourmet Baking Vanilla®
1 tsp/5 mL Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon
6 cups/1,500 mL confectioners' sugar
4 cups/1,000 mL semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, butter, Watkins All Natural Original Gourmet Baking Vanilla®, Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon and confectioners' sugar, stirring until well blended.
Roll
the peanut butter mixture into 1-inch/2.5-cm balls and place the balls
on lined baking sheet. Press a toothpick into the top of each ball and
chill in freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
Note: The toothpick will be used later as the handle for dipping.
Melt
chocolate chips in the microwave (about 1 minute). Using the toothpick
as a handle, dip each peanut butter ball in chocolate. Leave a small
portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like
Buckeyes. Place chocolate covered peanut butter balls on parchment and
removed the toothpick. Once the peanut butter has softened, you can use a
finger or the back of a spoon to smooth over the hole from the
toothpick.
Refrigerate, until chocolate is set. Store in refrigerator until eating or gifting.
