OHIO Buckeyes Chocolate and Peanut Butter Candy Recipe

Maybe you are an Ohio State fan or just love peanut butter & chocolate, here is a recipe for you!

Before we start, what exactly is a buckeye anyways?? A buckeye is a tree, the state tree of Ohio. It became a name used to identify the pioneers on the Ohio frontier. Of course it later became the name for any Ohio State University sports team. Here is what a buckeye tree looks like!

Here is what the fruit of the tree looks like:

Now onto the candy, you will see that the candy resembles the fruit of the Buckeye Tree. The fruit is poisonous to humans but often eaten by squirrels. So... be sure NOT to eat the real fruit of a buckeye tree!

WHAT YOU NEED

• 1 cup (9 ounces) creamy peanut butter
• 1/4 cup butter at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1+1/2 cup confectioner\'s sugar
• 1/2 cup all purpose flour

Put into a vintage or new candy tin or on a pretty plate & you have a great gift. Everyone loves these! Even if they are not an Ohio State fan!
