This is the ONLY Buckeye recipe I use because not only does it taste better with the graham crackers, it also doesn't use tons of confectioner's sugar. Once you've tried this version, you will wonder how you ever made them with all that sugar! I double this recipe and make smaller balls as they get heavy on the toothpick when you dip/coat them in the semi-sweet melted chips. This recipe has become a family tradition with my own family and now my extended family. I can't show up for the big Christmas gathering without it!

Great! Just like we made them when I was little. Only difference is that we use gulf wax instead of shortening. GO BUCKS!

I made these for Christmas and they went before any of the other cookies that I made. I used half cruncy peanut butter and half smooth. I did have to freeze them before I dipped them in the chocolate mixture. Also, I increased the amount of graham cracker crumbs to 3/4 cup. They are difficult and sticky to roll, but well worth it.

Spectacular! Great for entertaining as they add a definate gloss to the holiday table. These are so much better with the graham cracker crumbs versus without. Crunchy and sweet. It can get tricky if the chocolate gets too hot, as the peanut butter can start to melt and get into the chocolate sauce. If this starts to happen, remove the chocolate from the double boiler for a half a minute or so and replace. They are addicting!

A coworker shared this recipe with me almost 20 years ago and I lost it. I am so glad to find it here! The graham crumbs give the pb filling a Reese's like texture. This recipe is so much better than the pb and confectioners sugar alone. For those who had difficulty dipping, you can purchase a dipping loop in the candy section of your craft store, it makes dipping easy.

Made these the first time this Christmas and had trouble keeping them around long. My family started hoarding them. There is a little bit of a trick trying to coat them in the chocolate and not having them fall off the fork/toothpick/ chopstick - but well worth the effort.

This was my second time making buckeyes, and I think I prefer this recipe with the graham cracker crumbs in them. They seemed to hold their shape a bit better. I did have to put them in the freezer prior to dipping. Not sure I am entirely crazy about buckeyes, but if you like them then this is a good recipe for them. Very rich, make small balls.

These turned out really well. They were one the most delicious desserts I made this holiday season. However, I did think that they were one of the most difficult. You have to be really careful with the temperature of the chocolate as well as how long you leave it in the melted chocolate. I had the problem of leaving it into long - trying to coat it completely- and the chocolate would melt. But in the end they turned out great and were very tasty.

Good & easy. I used a 1/2 T. measuring spoon to make the balls & did not get 36. It only took 1 bag of chocolate & that was enough to coat all but 2. They are good uncoated too! I would make these again.

Delicious! I like this Buckeye recipe because it has the graham crumbs in it. Gives them a bit more body and firmness. Try them!
