BUCKEYE CANDY
1 c. (2 sticks) butter
5 1/4 c. confectioners' sugar
2 c. peanut butter
1 1/2 tbsp. vanilla
12 oz. chocolate bits
1/2 bar paraffin
Knead all together and shape into balls the size of walnuts. Melt the chocolate bits with the paraffin in the top of double boiler. Stick toothpicks into the balls and dip into chocolate so all of the ball is covered except top where toothpick is. This is what makes them look like buckeyes. Set on cookie sheet or wax paper in refrigerator until cold. Take off with a knife. Keep cool.

My 5th grade teacher used to make them every year when oHIO sTaTE PLAYED uOF mICHIGAN (SHE WAS an OSU alum...the school was about 30 minutes from UofMich campus in Ann Arbor) The ones I find in the stores in the fall are never as good as hers.

Just a gentle reminder to those of you new sweets. When we decided to make these sweet mules, we all said we would not hide our identities. Just in case you new ones didn't know that.
