Instructions
Peanut Butter Layer
-
Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Set it aside.
-
Using either a stand mixer or a medium-sized mixing bowl and a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat the softened butter for 1 minute until smooth.
-
Add the peanut butter and vanilla. Continue mixing for 1 minute until smooth.
-
Lower the mixer speed to medium-low and add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each cup. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and continue mixing until completely incorporated.
-
Using either a silicone spatula or an offset spatula, evenly spread the peanut butter mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Chocolate Ganache
-
Add the chocolate chips and oil to a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 1 minute, stir, and continue to mix in 15-second intervals until the mixture is completely smooth.
-
Using a silicone spatula or an offset spatula, evenly spread the chocolate over the peanut butter layer. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Remove the baking dish from the refrigerator. Carefully slice the buckeye bars into 15 (2½-inch x 3-inch) pieces. Cover the baking dish and return the bars to the refrigerator to continue chilling for an additional 1 hour and 45 minutes.
-
Remove the bars from the dish by the parchment paper. You may need to carefully re-slice the bars. Serve immediately
Notes
- You can use a piece of wax paper to smooth the peanut butter layer.
- You can let the bars chill for the full 2 hours before slicing, but the chocolate layer may crack and not be as pretty as pre-slicing after chilling for 15 to 20 minutes.
- You may need to carefully re-slice the bars before serving.
