Prep Time: 20 minutes
Chill Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: ~50 minutes
Servings: ~24 balls


Ingredients

  • 2 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars (about 6 full-size bars or 12 fun-size bars)
  • 1½ cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 cups milk chocolate chips (or semi-sweet, if preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional, for smooth melting)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Butterfinger candy bars, peanut butter, and powdered sugar. Mix until fully combined into a thick, moldable dough.

Step 2: Shape the Balls

  1. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Chill the balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 3: Melt the Chocolate

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using).
  2. Heat in 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.

Step 4: Coat the Balls

  1. Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled Butterfinger ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated.
  2. Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 5: Let the Chocolate Set

  1. Allow the chocolate to harden by leaving the balls at room temperature or placing them in the fridge for about 15-20 minutes.

Optional Garnish:

  • Drizzle with melted white chocolate for decoration.
  • Sprinkle with crushed Butterfinger pieces on top before the chocolate sets.

Storage:

  • Store Butterfinger Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • These also freeze well—store in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.

These Butterfinger Balls are the ultimate sweet and salty treat, bursting with peanut butter goodness and the irresistible crunch of Butterfinger candy! 🥜🍫
