Pumpkin Buckeyes

 I recently visited the Circleville Pumpkin Show and bought some delicious Pumpkin Buckeyes. Does anyone have a recipe for these? I would appreciate any and all info you can pass on.  Thanks!

I went out searching the internet for the recipe - nothing, BUT I came up with this idea.

Substitute canned pumpkin for the peanut butter in the Regular Buckeye recipe adding the spices you would normally put in pumpkin pie (or cookies). I bet if you get the right consistency you will have the recipe. The only thing I would be leery of IS how long could you keep them safely before they might spoil.

Good Luck

 Thanks for your help.  I will have to give that a try, it sounds like it would work. I appreciate your reply and your good idea.  

kangamom, I found another hint for the Buckeyes.  A recipe for the Reg Buckeyes used graham cracker crumbs, also to get the right consistency.

1/2 cup very fine graham cracker crumbs  (if the recipe you try has graham cracker crumbs you may be ahead of the game).  GOOD LUCK

Worth trying.

 Thanks for the good idea!  You've been very helpful and I appreciate your info. 

What about using pumpkin fudge for the middle of the buckeye?  I think it would work to roll into balls & dip in chocolate.  Good luck with your buckeyes--they sound good! 

 That sounds like a good idea!  I will have to give it a try. I bought pumpkin fudge at The Pumpkin Show too.  It was delicious! Thanks for the great idea!
