Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter Must be at room temperature for easy mixing.
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars Approximately 5-6 bars.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Coating
  • 1 cup chocolate chips For melting.
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil For thinning chocolate.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Stir with a spatula until smooth and well-combined.
  2. Gently fold in the crushed Butterfinger pieces and vanilla extract until everything is evenly mixed.
  3. Using your hands, take a small amount of the mixture and roll it into a ball about the size of a walnut. Repeat until all the mixture is rolled into balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Cover the baking sheet and refrigerate the balls for about 30 minutes, allowing them to firm up.
Coating
  1. While the balls are chilling, melt the chocolate chips with the vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Use a fork to remove excess chocolate and place it back on the parchment sheet.
  3. Allow the chocolate to harden at room temperature or place the tray back in the fridge for quicker setting.
  4. Once set, enjoy your Butterfinger Balls!

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them for up to two months, and thaw at room temperature or microwave for quick warm-up.
