Jenn suggested we have a go at making Buckeyes, and several other people said that they make them, too. Here's the recipe we used:
3/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups confectioners' sugar
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Mix all ingredients apart from the chocolate, and roll into bite-sized balls (it feels a bit like playing with wet sand!) Pop a cocktail stick (we actually used half a cocktail stick) into each ball, this will be your "handle" later. Pop into the fridge for half an hour (if you want, use that half hour to write a letter, like we did!) Melt the chocolate chips, then take out the dough balls, swirl them in the chocolate and put onto wax paper to set. Once you've done them all, put them in the fridge to set properly.
