What goes better together than chocolate and peanut butter? This
match made in heaven has delighted young and old alike for decades.
In the Midwest, these two delicious ingredients are combined into a
sweet treat named after an Ohio tree nut: the buckeye. These little
round balls of peanut buttery goodness-rolled and dipped in
chocolate, of course-appear on platters at fan tailgates, church
potlucks, family gatherings, and on cash register displays. They
have become a staple of Midwestern culture and even have their own
Buckeye Candy Trail through the state of Ohio. Midwestern native,
author, and food lover Cyle Young reveals the history of the
buckeye tree and the stories, folklore, and superstitions that
accompany the famous nut. From the buckeye's place in the
presidential campaign of William Henry Harrison to Ohio State's
self-proclaimed biggest football fan, Buckeyes includes fascinating
tidbits and stories for any candy lover. Young also shares which
stores on the trail still make the buckeye candies the traditional
way-by hand. Alongside classic recipes for the candy itself and
sweet treats inspired by buckeye flavors-cakes, brownies,
beverages, and more-are numerous tips on how to choose your peanut
butter and chocolate, the many ways to melt your chocolate, and
other secrets to help you become a buckeye connoisseur.
