Being from Ohio, Buckeyes are of course my absolute favorite treat. Unfortunatly making buckeyes can be a bit of work. Rolling the peanut butter mix, diping in chocolate etc etc. So intstead of going through all that work I just make Buckeye Bars. Taste just as yummy with much less work!

1 cup margarine
1-1/2 cups creamy peanut butter, divided
16 oz pkg. powdered sugar
8 oz milk chocolate candy bar, broken up
