Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter – Provides a smooth, rich base.

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or shortening) – Helps make the chocolate smooth and glossy.

How to Make Butterfinger Balls

Step 1: Crush the Butterfingers

1. Place Butterfinger bars in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs. (Or use a food processor for a finer texture.)

Step 2: Make the Filling

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine crushed Butterfingers, powdered sugar, peanut butter, and graham cracker crumbs.
3. Stir or mix with your hands until fully combined and a dough-like consistency forms.

Step 3: Roll into Balls

4. Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball.
5. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
6. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

Step 4: Chill the Balls

7. Place the tray in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to firm up.

Step 5: Melt the Chocolate

8. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and vegetable oil.
9. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.

Step 6: Dip & Coat

10. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled Butterfinger ball into the melted chocolate, rolling to coat.
11. Let excess chocolate drip off, then place back on the parchment paper.

Step 7: Let Them Set & Enjoy!

12. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or refrigerate for 15 minutes until firm.
13. Enjoy your rich, chocolatey, peanut buttery Butterfinger Balls!
