Condiments:
- 1 cup peanut butter
Baking & Spices:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz chocolate bark or chocolate chips (for coating)
Snacks:
- 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
Dairy:
- 4 tbsp butter (softened)
Desserts:
- 1/2 cup Butterfinger bars (crushed)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling:
- In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, vanilla extract, and crushed Butterfinger bars until a thick dough forms.
- Shape the Balls:
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
- Chill:
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator or freezer for 15–20 minutes to firm up the balls.
- Melt the Chocolate:
- While the balls chill, melt the chocolate bark or chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and melted.
- Coat the Balls:
- Using a fork or toothpick, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the chocolate-covered balls back on the parchment-lined sheet.
- Set the Chocolate:
- Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or refrigerate the balls for 10–15 minutes until firm.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Transfer to a serving plate or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- For added crunch, sprinkle extra crushed Butterfinger bars on top of the balls before the chocolate sets.
- Use milk, dark, or white chocolate for the coating based on your preference.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
