These turned out great and tasted great as well. You definitely need to use shortening and not butter for the chocolate coating.

These are SO good! I love the crunch to these and will definitely make them again. I don't think I'll ever go back to plain buckeyes!

I had quite a bit of trouble melting the chocolate chips and margarine. I tried twice & the chips never dip get thin enough for me to dip the balls. I ended up smashing the peanut butter balls flat onto the pan & spreading the chocolate over them, thus bars instead of balls

Made these last year for the first time and couldn't find the recipe for awhile. So glad I did! The PB balls have a nice crunch for a change from other ball cookies. Only thing, when rolling into balls I hade to kept washing the pb off my hands. It was making it difficult to form a nice ball. Lovely flavor, makes a lot.
