Peanut Butter Buckeye Pie
So, you know in my previous post how I told you about making hundreds and hundreds of buckeyes? Well, I got a little bit tired of rolling out little buckeyes when a little idea popped in my head. I was working with a double batch x a gazillion of filling at the time. Do you think that I am kidding? Here are some pictures I was tweeting (taken from my phone).
This is one giant buckeye, people. Grab a fork and dig in. You’re welcome. The filling is the recipe from my husband’s grandmother. I ♥ having the original recipe written in her handwriting.

This pie makes me want to swear! It sounds so yummy!
If I didn't know you better, I'd think maybe you have a peanut butter obsession….:)
I have my grandmothers buckeye recipe and am the official "Buckeye Baker" for my family every holiday season (somehow over the years all my friends have come to expect them too!).
I'm hoping I don't short out my keyboard from all the drool running down into it right now looking at your pics for this pie.
And I noticed a link to a PB milkshake … I'm headed there next! I LOVE peanut butter and ANYTHING made with it! Have a feeling I'll be coming back here often!
Thanks for sharing! (btw found you through TidyMom's Love the Pie event!)
Wowowowo , that is one awesome looking pie , yummy , how divine it would be to dive into it 😀 .

Making a Buckeye Pie is pure genius. So much easier, than rolling all of those little balls, and just as tasty.
Have a great weekend!
Holy crap! This is the best thing ever!! It's amazing, what an awesome idea, I love it 🙂

Brilliant!!! I think you just started a trend for all of us tired of the tedious process of making buckeyes! LOVE this!
Ridiculous…and I mean that in a VERY good way. This is totally awesome. I love the ease, without losing flavor or texture..
this looks FANTASTIC!!!
thanks for linking up!
Wow… I want – need – must have stat 🙂 Seriously that'd be heaven.
Yummilicious!
love, love, love!!!
I LOVE that you kept the eye in the middle of the pie.
A monster buckeye! It IS genius. Very creative. I love buckeyes anyway.
oh my goodness! So sinful looking! delish!
Oooh what a good idea!! I just made buckeyes the other day for my giveaway winner and would have never thought to make a pie with the filling. Love it! Can't wait to try it!
I am drooling, Katrina! I love this sooo much. I wish we were neighbors!
If this is crazy, I don't want to be sane! Looks amazing!
Insane. Sending this one to my mom – I know my dad would love it!
Um. WOW. That's incredible. I'm a total PB & Choc kinda gal and THAT is amazing. I'm imagining how rich and delicious it is. Mmmmm….
Oh my goodness….that is one big peanut butter/chocolate pie GOODNESS right there! I would want to eat it all. And then I probably would do it. And then I would be sick. But it would taste so good! What a great idea!
Whoa. That is a LOT. I love this one!! LOVE it!! Making me smile.
This is awesome! We make buckeyes every year and this woudl be a fun way to enjoy them. You are so creative!
Wow! That looks AMAZING. How creative! My husband (and me and my daughter) would flip over this. I might have to make this SOON. I host a weekly linky, Crazy Sweet Tuesday and would love for you to join sometime!
I saw this over on Cheryl's linkup and I had to click over to see it. This is one killer pie!
Sigh…I think I'm in love with this pie! Sorry I'm so behind with you and everyone these days. Work has been nuts the past few weeks that I barely have time to blog when I get home. But…I try to hit a few favorite blogs before bed at night. Spreading the love your way tonight…
This is one amazing looking pie! When I was in HS they used to make a bar cookie like this. Delicious!
You're a genius(I know I keep saying that, but I can't help it)! I want a giant buckeye! LOVE it!
I can't find words for this pie. Apart, perhaps, from "absolutely sinful". I don't know how many hours I've got to spend running in order to have a piece of this, but whatever it takes — I must have (at least) one!! :))
O.M.G. I am sure when my husband sees this he will go berserk! We both LOVE buckeyes! He may decide that this will be his birthday cake next week…
This is beautiful, what a pie, a sugar high for sure. But I'll dig in anyday………..thanks, andi
