Butterfinger Balls Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
2 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars about 8 regular-sized bars
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chocolate chips milk or semi-sweet
1 tablespoon vegetable shortening optional, for smoother chocolate coating
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter and softened unsalted butter until smooth and well-mixed.
Gradually add powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, mixing well after each addition until you have a dough-like consistency.
Fold in the crushed Butterfinger candy bars and vanilla extract into the dough until they are evenly distributed.
Using your hands, roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill the balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm them up.
In the meantime, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler. If the melted chocolate seems too thick, you can add a tablespoon of vegetable shortening to achieve a smoother consistency.
Once the balls have chilled, use a fork or toothpick to dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat them entirely.
Place the chocolate-coated balls back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate sets completely.
Once the chocolate is firm, the Butterfinger balls are ready to serve!
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
