Description

These Butterfinger Balls are a quick and easy no-bake treat packed with crunchy Butterfinger flavor, creamy peanut butter, and rich chocolate. Perfect for parties, holidays, or anytime you need a sweet snack, these bite-sized delights are a crowd favorite!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (about 6 fun-size bars) crushed Butterfinger candy bars
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening (for smooth chocolate coating)

Instructions

  • Make the Filling
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Butterfinger bars, peanut butter, and softened butter. Stir until well blended.
  • Gradually mix in the powdered sugar until a firm dough forms.
  • Shape the Balls
  • Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes until firm.
  • Melt the Chocolate
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until smooth.
  • Coat the Balls
  • Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, using a fork to coat evenly.
  • Let the excess chocolate drip off, then place the coated ball back on the parchment paper.
  • Set & Serve
  • Allow the chocolate coating to set by refrigerating for another 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
  • Add a pinch of sea salt on top for extra flavor.
  • If the mixture is too sticky, chill it for 10-15 minutes before rolling.
