how to mimic android checkbox using button and state drawables

I want to use checkbox in RemoteViews but it does not support Checkbox object, so I think that I can achieve a similar effect using Button with custom state-list drawables. Basically I want an on/off switch which toggles on click and looks like a Checkbox.

I believe I am not the only one having this requirement so maybe someone has already made this checkbox-like button before. Please share with me the xml or point me in a direction. I don't have 100% understanding of drawables but I can find a way through it if I am heading in the right direction.

One shortcut I could take is to use an ImageButton and then alternate the images of checked/unchecked states programmatically, but I think inherent state changes would be faster.
