Butterfinger Balls
Delicious no-bake treats made with creamy peanut butter, crushed Butterfinger bars, and chocolate coating, perfect for holiday gatherings and parties.
Ingredients
For the Filling
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter Make sure it's smooth and creamy.
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars Crush the bars into small pieces.
For the Chocolate Coating
- 1.5 cups chocolate chips Choose between milk or dark chocolate.
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil Optional for achieving a thinner chocolate consistency.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Mix until well blended and you have a thick mixture.
- Fold in the crushed Butterfinger candy bars into the peanut butter mixture until evenly distributed.
- Using your hands, form small balls with the mixture, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up the balls.
Chocolate Coating
- While the balls chill, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. If you want a thinner consistency, add the vegetable oil.
- Remove the chilled balls from the refrigerator. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each ball into the melted chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
- Place the chocolate-coated balls back on the parchment paper. Once you've dipped all the balls, place them in the fridge again for about 15 minutes to set the chocolate.
Serving
- After the chocolate has set, you can serve the Butterfinger Balls. Enjoy them as a delightful treat at your holiday gatherings or as snack ideas for a Super Bowl party!
