I made 400 of these for a wedding reception last summer. They turned out really well. I found you need less butter than most recipes call for. Here is a thread where I asked for help and got a recipe from a member that makes them a lot.

There is a recipe for buckeye's on this site with a 5 rating let me see if I can find it ![]()
Here's the one I was talking about:

I think cakesbyjess posted the recipe which is the same one as she posted in my thread which I linked above.
Yes, These are indeed the same recipes. Must be a good one ![]()
Yes, that is the same recipe I used. I found the trick to them being more firm is the parrafin in the chocolate. I think I even used just a little more than the recipe because it was August in 100 degree temp. I got food grade parrafin at my local cake and candy supply store.
Yes, they will. I made 400 last August when it was over 100, bagged them 3 to a bag - 150 bags and 50 more scattered around a cupcake tower. They did fine and the bride was very happy with them. It was in inside venue, so a/c; but still hot and humid. They did great at room temp. I made the balls, then froze the balls and dipped them while frozen.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to package these to sell? I am interested in something more like a box or plastic container that will hold about a dozen. TIA
