Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars
- 12 oz milk chocolate, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well combined. - Add the Butterfinger Crunch:
Stir in the crushed Butterfinger candy bars, ensuring the pieces are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. - Shape the Balls:
Scoop out small portions of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon) and roll them into 1-inch balls using your hands. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. - Freeze the Balls:
Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and let the balls chill for 30 minutes. This step makes them firm and easier to coat in chocolate. - Dip in Chocolate:
Melt the milk chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth. Use a fork or dipping tool to coat each ball in melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off before placing them back on the parchment paper. - Set the Chocolate:
Refrigerate the coated Butterfinger Balls for 15 minutes or until the chocolate is completely set.
Notes
- For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or almond butter.
- If you prefer a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
- To store, place the Butterfinger Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for up to three months.
- For a decorative touch, drizzle white chocolate over the top after the coating has set.
