  • 1 cup crushed Butterfinger bars Feel free to swap with other candy bars.

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine peanut butter and softened butter. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Pour in vanilla extract and mix on low speed until fully integrated, about 1 minute.
  3. Gradually sift in powdered sugar while mixing on low speed, scraping down the bowl as needed.
  4. Gently fold in graham cracker crumbs and crushed Butterfinger bars until evenly distributed.
  5. Roll the mixture into 1-1.5 inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Chill the baking sheet in the freezer for about 30 minutes until firm.
  7. Melt chocolate bark or chips in a microwave-safe bowl in short intervals, stirring until smooth.
  8. Dip the chilled Butterfinger Balls into melted chocolate and return to the parchment-lined sheet.
  9. Before the chocolate sets, add optional garnishes if desired.
  10. Let the chocolate-covered balls sit at room temperature until hardened, about 30 minutes.
