Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 2 cups crushed Butterfinger bars

For the Coating:
- 3 cups milk chocolate chips

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

In a large bowl, mix 1 cup of creamy peanut butter and 1 cup of softened unsalted butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Add Powdered Sugar

Gradually add 4 cups of powdered sugar to the mixture, mixing thoroughly until you achieve a sweet dough that is firm enough to roll.

Step 3: Incorporate Crushed Butterfinger Bars

Stir in 2 cups of crushed Butterfinger bars to introduce a delightful crunch into the filling.

Step 4: Roll into Balls

Take small portions of the dough and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place the formed balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 5: Melt the Chocolate Coating

Using a double boiler or the microwave, melt 3 cups of milk chocolate chips until silky smooth. If using the microwave, do so in short bursts to prevent burning.

Step 6: Dip the Balls

Carefully dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are completely coated in the chocolate.

Step 7: Set the Chocolate

Place the chocolate-coated treats back on the parchment paper and allow them to set until the chocolate becomes firm

Step 8: Enjoy or Share

Once set, indulge in these delicious Butterfinger Balls alone or share them with friends for a delightful treat!
