Description

These Butterfinger Balls are a delicious no-bake treat combining the crunch of crushed Butterfinger bars and graham cracker crumbs with creamy peanut butter, all coated in a smooth layer of chocolate. Perfect for parties or holiday gifting, they offer a delightful sweet and crunchy bite.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 (16-oz) box powdered sugar
  • 2½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 5 (1.9-oz) Butterfinger bars, crushed
  • 1¼ cups butter, melted
  • 1½ cups crunchy peanut butter

Coating

  • 1 (24-oz) package chocolate almond bark or your preferred chocolate candy coating


Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, crushed Butterfinger bars, melted butter, and crunchy peanut butter. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated into a uniform mixture.
  2. Form Balls: Roll the mixture into 1-inch diameter balls using your hands. Place each formed ball onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  3. Chill: Refrigerate the balls for 30 minutes to allow them to firm up, making them easier to dip and handle.
  4. Melt Chocolate: Melt the chocolate almond bark or your preferred chocolate candy coating following the package instructions, ensuring smooth and even consistency for coating.
  5. Dip Balls: Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, covering it evenly. Use a fork or dipping tool to remove excess chocolate and place the coated balls back onto parchment paper.
  6. Set Chocolate: Let the chocolate coating set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving or storing.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper on the baking sheet to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  • You can substitute crunchy peanut butter with smooth peanut butter for a different texture.
  • Refrigerate coated balls to speed up the chocolate setting process.
  • The mixture can be rolled larger or smaller according to your preference, but adjust chilling time accordingly.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
