Butterfinger Balls are a quick and delightful treat that combines the rich flavors of chocolate, peanut butter, and creamy textures, all reminiscent of the classic Butterfinger candy bar. Perfect for parties, gifting, or simply as an indulgent snack, these no-bake treats are simple to make and sure to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky, based on preference)
  • Optional: Additional crushed Butterfinger or chocolate for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Mixture:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and peanut butter. Mix until smooth and creamy.
    • Gradually add powdered sugar and continue mixing until well incorporated.
    • Fold in the crushed Butterfinger pieces, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  2. Shape the Balls:
    • Take small spoonfuls of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
    • Refrigerate the balls for 20-30 minutes to firm up.
  3. Coat in Chocolate:
    • While the balls chill, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 15-second intervals and stirring in between until fully melted.
    • Dip each chilled Butterfinger ball into the melted chocolate, coating it evenly. Use a fork to remove the ball, letting any excess chocolate drip off.
    • Place the chocolate-covered balls back on the parchment-lined sheet. If desired, sprinkle extra crushed Butterfinger or drizzle chocolate on top for decoration.
  4. Chill and Serve:
    • Refrigerate the coated Butterfinger balls for another 15-20 minutes until the chocolate sets.
    • Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

These Butterfinger Balls are an irresistible dessert, blending creamy peanut butter with the crunch of Butterfinger pieces and a smooth chocolate coating. Easy to make and enjoy, they’re a wonderful treat for any occasion and will leave your guests asking for more!
