Tbqh I make the lazy version sometimes, without the chocolate, and just eat the frozen dough. It's so good. Highly recommend

# peanut butter buckeyes ## ingredients x* 1 ½ cups peanut butter * 1 cup butter, (2 sticks) softened * ½ teaspoon vanilla extract * 4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar, plus more as needed * 4 cups semisweet chocolate chips * toothpicks ## Directions Gather all ingredients. Beat peanut butter, butter, and vanilla together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in 4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar until dough is stiff, firm, and dry with no lumps; adding more sifted sugar as needed. Roll dough into about sixty 1-inch balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheets. Press a toothpick into the top of each ball and chill in the freezer until firm, about 30 minutes. Place chocolate chips in a double boiler or in a bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until melted and smooth. Hold the toothpicks and dip frozen peanut butter balls into the melted chocolate, leaving a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top. Return to the cookie sheet, remove and discard the toothpicks, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
