I came across this recipe a few years ago and my entire family raves over this dish. It’s crisp, refreshing and oh so flavorful.

This sweet treat is a peanut butter & crispy rice cereal cookie, rolled into a ball, and dipped in chocolate. I don’t dare show up at Christmastime without these. Whenever I ask my Godchildren what they would like for Christmas, they always respond with ” my own personal stash of Buckeyes”. They are one of […]
My good friend Marsha shared this recipe with me several years ago. I have served it at several parties and everyone loves it.
