Ingredients:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars (about 5 full-size bars)
- 12 oz chocolate chips or chocolate melting wafers (milk or semi-sweet)
- 1 tablespoon shortening or coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
Instructions:
- Mix Base:
In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter and softened butter until smooth and creamy. - Add Sugar & Vanilla:
Mix in powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fully combined and a dough forms. - Fold in Butterfingers:
Stir in the crushed Butterfinger pieces evenly throughout the dough. - Form Balls:
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for about 30 minutes to firm up. - Melt Chocolate:
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with the shortening (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. - Dip & Set:
Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Place back on parchment paper. - Chill:
Refrigerate or freeze until chocolate is set (about 15-30 minutes).
Storage:
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
