For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips. Add a pinch of sea salt to the peanut butter mixture for a delightful salty-sweet contrast. Store leftover buckeye bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain their texture and freshness. For easier cutting, warm the knife under hot water and dry it before each slice.
