I’m so glad everyone enjoyed them so much, Molly! Thank you for the feedback in making them gluten and dairy free. I frequently get asked, but don’t have the opportunity to try it so the input is very helpful. 🙂

These cookies are one of the best things I have ever made and I am not exaggerating. Never have I received so many compliments from people for making something as when I made these. People were raving about them. I was apprehensive to make them when I looked over the recipe because of all the steps. However, do not worry. If you follow the recipe, they will turn out perfectly. I actually even made them gluten and dairy free! I just swapped out the regular flour for gluten free flour, used vegan butter and then dairy free chocolate chips and almond milk for the ganache and it worked! No one could believe they were gluten and dairy free. These are going to be my go-to treats when I need to bring something. They also freeze perfectly. I am so thankful for this recipe!

these cookies are very good, but very rich and very sweet! I didn’t use all the powdered sugar the recipe calls for in the peanut butter layer. I made the smaller size cookie. I can’t Imagine eating a whole one of the larger size. when I make again, I will make them much smaller.

Hi Debbie! It won’t completely firm up and you could run into issues with the ganache smudging a bit.

After the chocolate sets, can the cookies be stacked for transport?

My family loved this recipe. Being from the Midwest ( go Hawkeyes) I try all kinds of ‘ buckeye’ recipes. This is our favorite. The cookies are chocolatey deliciousness. I used a # 16 scoop for 13 cookies. The peanut butter filling is the star and the ganache takes it over the top. It was a wonderful flavor combination with cookie texture, peanut butter smoothness and ganache richness. I also had leftover peanut butter filling. I scooped out little balls and placed them in the fridge where we’ve been nibbling on them as a snack. I sent the last of the cookies home with the grandkids to reduce temptation. These are beautiful cookies and delicious to boot. Thanks for putting together a different Buckeye recipe.

So, so, so gooooooood. Had a lot of the peanut butter “cream” remaining though. So, just chilled it and ate it as peanut butter fudge!! It’s a great recipe.
