These Buckeye Brownie Bites combine buckeyes and brownies together in a cute little package so you have one incredible chocolate peanut butter dessert.
Add the peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Beat with a hand mixer on medium until combined. **See Note below.
Scoop tablespoon size balls with a cookie scoop, roll them and place them onto a sheet of wax paper. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a mini muffin pan with non-stick baking spray.
Brownies
In a large bowl, add the brownie mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. Beat until incorporated.
Fill each mini muffin cavity ½ full.
Bake for about 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the brownie comes out clean.
When taking the brownies out of the oven, immediately press a peanut butter ball into the top.
Allow the brownies to cool for 5 to 10 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack.
Once cooled, add the almond bark to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 20 to 30 seconds. Stir and repeat until the almond bark is smooth.
Using a fork, drizzle the chocolate across the peanut butter brownies. Cool to set the chocolate. Enjoy!
Notes
The peanut butter ball mixture should be like a cookie dough, if it’s too crumbly, add a little more peanut butter. If the mixture is too sticky, add some more powdered sugar.
