Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup Butterfinger candy bars, crushed
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups graham crackers, crushed
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Coating:

  • 1 package chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Crush graham crackers and Butterfinger bars into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
  2. Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, peanut butter, and melted butter in a mixing bowl, blending until a cohesive mixture forms.
  3. Use clean hands to shape the mixture into uniform bite-sized spheres, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Chill the formed balls in the refrigerator for approximately 25-30 minutes to firm up their structure.
  5. Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at 50% power, stirring every 20-30 seconds until completely smooth and glossy.
  6. Carefully submerge each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring full and even coverage using a dipping fork.
  7. Gently tap the fork on the bowl’s edge to remove excess chocolate and return the coated balls to the parchment-lined sheet.
  8. Refrigerate the chocolate-covered balls for 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate shell has completely hardened.
  9. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

  • Customize the sweetness by adjusting powdered sugar based on personal taste preferences.
  • Choose creamy peanut butter for smoother texture and easier mixing.
  • Crush Butterfinger bars finely to ensure even distribution throughout the mixture.
  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for a richer coating and glossier finish.
