Description

Buckeye Recipe Rice Krispies Paraffin is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. This recipe combines the classic flavors of peanut butter and chocolate with the crunchiness of Rice Krispies cereal. The addition of paraffin wax to the chocolate coating gives the Buckeyes a shiny finish and helps to prevent them from melting in your hands.

Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is approximately 30 minutes.

Cook Time

There is no cooking involved in this recipe.

Ingredients

For the Buckeyes:
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
For the Chocolate Coating:
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup paraffin wax

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixing spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Parchment paper
  • Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
  • Fork or toothpick

Method

1. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. 2. Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, mixing well after each addition. 3. Stir in the Rice Krispies cereal until well combined. 4. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. 5. In a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and paraffin wax together until smooth. 6. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each ball into the chocolate mixture and coat well. Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet. 7. Chill the Buckeyes in the refrigerator until the chocolate coating is set, approximately 30 minutes.

Notes

It is important to use paraffin wax in the chocolate coating to prevent the Buckeyes from melting in your hands. Be sure to use food-grade paraffin wax, which can be found at most grocery stores. If you don't have a double boiler, you can create one by placing a heat-safe bowl over a pot of simmering water.
