Buckeye candy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Buckeye candy is a confection made from a peanut butter mixture, which is partially dipped in chocolate. Named for their resemblance to the nut from of the Ohio buckeye tree, these candy are indigenous to the state of Ohio. Buckeyes can be homemade, but are also available in mail order catalogs and candy shops.[1][2][3]
