Buckeyes anyone??




Before my parents left for Florida, my mother came over and we decided to make buckeyes for our Christmas trays. My youngest daughter got in on the fun too. We mixed and rolled and dipped but in the end we had a nice collection to share with family and friends. What Christmas treats are you making this year? This is just one of the many cookies we will bake to add to our holiday celebrations. Mom...don't they look good...thanks for coming over...we're making memories.

I'm so drooling right now - those are our absolute favorite!! I just mentioned to my daughter today that I want to make some soon. They are just too delicious. We have committed to spend a lot of time baking and making old-fashioned favorites this year.
Thanks for sharing!!!

Hiya sweetie! Ok I have to ask, what in the world are buckeyes??!! Are they a round biscuit dipped in chocolate? I have neve heard of them, but they do look interesting! I'm happy that you had a good time with your mum and daughter making these together. Wishing you a wonderful week Dianntha!
