Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons softened butter (1⁄2 stick)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces chocolate bark or chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup Butterfinger bars crushed
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter (avoid all-natural varieties)
  • 3/4 cup crumbs from graham crackers
Optional Garnishes
  • additional crushed Butterfinger bars
  • festive sprinkles
  • coarse sea salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, combine softened butter, vanilla extract, peanut butter, and powdered sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  2. Fold in the crushed Butterfinger bars and graham cracker crumbs until well incorporated.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Coating
  1. While the balls chill, melt the chocolate bark or chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until fully melted and smooth.
  2. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate until fully coated, then place back on the parchment-lined sheet.
  3. Garnish immediately with additional crushed Butterfinger bars, festive sprinkles, or a light sprinkle of coarse sea salt if desired.
Setting
  1. Return the coated balls to the refrigerator to set the chocolate, approximately 20 minutes.

Notes

Store Butterfinger Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. They freeze beautifully too, keeping them ready for a sweet craving!
