Butterfinger Balls: A Simple and Irresistible Treat

Print Recipe

These Butterfinger Balls are a delightful no-bake treat that combines creamy peanut butter, crushed Butterfinger candy bars, and chocolate for a crunchy, sweet, and irresistible bite-sized dessert. Perfect for parties, holidays, or just a sweet snack!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 12 oz chocolate chips (milk or semi-sweet)
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling:

    • In a large bowl, mix the crushed Butterfinger bars, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and softened butter until well combined.
    • Roll the mixture into small bite-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
    • Freeze for about 20-30 minutes until firm.

  2. Melt the Chocolate:

    • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until smooth. (You can add coconut oil or shortening for a glossier finish.)

  3. Coat the Balls:

    • Using a fork or toothpick, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated.
    • Place back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and allow the chocolate to set.

  4. Set and Serve:

    • Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate hardens.
    • Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Notes

  • You can use dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • If the mixture is too sticky, chill it for a few minutes before rolling into balls.
  • For extra crunch, add finely chopped Butterfinger pieces on top before the chocolate sets.
