One Clever Peanut Butter Swap Results In The Tastiest Buckeyes Ever
BY PEGGY AOKI
Buckeyes are a chocolate-dipped, peanut butter-filled classic sweet and savory combination. To elevate their flavor, swap the peanut butter for gingerbread cookie butter.
This switch is perfect if you are making candies for a loved one with a peanut allergy or accidentally faced with a peanut butter shortage.
Simply substitute the cookie butter for an equal measure of peanut butter. Despite being sweeter, its deep, spicy flavors of gingerbread keep the mixture from being too cloying.
