Brutus Buckeye Loves Weddings!

Brutus Buckeye Loves Weddings! DJ Jodi says “HI” to Brutus Buckeye during his visit to Linda and Seton Staley’s fantastic wedding celebration at The Westin Columbus. Brutus is quite the dancer.

How cool would it be to have Brutus come to your wedding reception?  We think very cool, and we love it anytime Brutus shows up.

Brutus has some brand new formal wear! He wore it for the first time at a wedding when he visited Jessica and Chris for their reception celebration at the Ohio Union. Check out this video!

The Ohio Union at The Ohio State University is a beautiful location for your special event. Jessica and Chris hired photographer extraordinaire, Brian Kellogg to capture all of the fun. Check out Brian’s photo slideshow of this wedding here: www.BrianKellogg.com.

We actually love it when ANY Buckeyes show up at a party.  Here’s how to make your own candy treats:

Recipe for Buckeyes:

Ingredients
18oz jar of creamy peanut butter
1 cup (2 sticks) of butter or margarine – softened
1 1/2 lbs confectioners sugar
12 oz (1 bag) real chocolate chips
Approx ½ package of Chocolate flavored candy melts or dipping chocolate

Directions:
1) Mix together peanut butter, margarine and confections sugar
You can do this by hand, or electric mixer, or food processor.

2) Form mixture into balls about 1 inch round.
If mixture is too sticky, add a little more powdered sugar

3) Place on tray and chill in freezer or refrigerator, at least 45 minutes

4) Melt chocolate chips and chocolate melts in microwave using instructions on package. This will likely be about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes at HALF power. Then stir.  Then, 15 second intervals still at half power until the chocolate mixture is melted and shiny!

5) Dip chilled peanut butter balls into chocolate (using a toothpick) – leaving some brown on top. Place on wax paper and chill until set. (It doesn’t take very long for them to “set”)

This recipe will make 70 or more Buckeyes.

GO BUCKS!
