Butterfinger Balls (No-Bake Candy)
Ingredients
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Creamy peanut butter | 1 1/3 cup |
| Salted butter, softened | 1/2 cup |
| Vanilla extract | 1 teaspoon |
| Powdered sugar | 2 cups |
| Butterfinger Bits (plus more for topping, optional) | 1 1/2 cups |
| Chocolate melting wafers | 3 cups |
How To Make Butterfinger Balls:
Step 1: Combine the Base Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, blend together the peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla extract for about 30 seconds until creamy and smooth.
Step 2: Add the Sweet Crunch
Gradually sift in the powdered sugar and continue mixing until well combined. Gently fold in the Butterfinger Bits until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 3: Chill the Mixture
Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up the dough and make it easier to roll.
Step 4: Shape and Freeze
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out portions of the chilled mixture and roll them into small balls. Arrange them on the baking sheet and freeze for 20–30 minutes until firm.
Step 5: Melt the Chocolate
Right before removing the balls from the freezer, melt the chocolate melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is completely smooth.
Step 6: Dip and Coat
Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off, then place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined sheet.
Step 7: Add the Finishing Touch
Sprinkle the tops with a few extra Butterfinger Bits for a delicious crunch. Let the chocolate set at room temperature or refrigerate until hardened.
These no-bake Butterfinger Balls are the perfect blend of creamy, crunchy, and chocolatey goodness. They’re so easy to make—and even easier to devour!
