Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Rolling pin
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Pizza cutter or knife

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cut in the softened butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and milk. Add this to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
  5. Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half to about 1/8-inch thickness.
  6. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Use a pizza cutter or knife to score the dough into cracker shapes. You can also use a graham cracker mold if you have one.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges.
  8. Let the crackers cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the crackers cool, prepare the buckeye coating. In a medium bowl, beat together the peanut butter and softened butter until smooth.
  10. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar until well combined.
  11. Roll the peanut butter mixture into small balls, about the size of a marble. Flatten them slightly.
  12. Dip the bottom half of each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate. Place on parchment paper to set.
  13. Once the chocolate has set, place a peanut butter ball onto each cooled graham cracker.

Notes

Store the buckeye graham crackers in an airtight container at room temperature.
