Butterfinger Bliss Balls

These Butterfinger Bliss Balls are a delightful treat that combines the creamy goodness of peanut butter with the crunch of Butterfinger bars. Perfect for any occasion, these no-bake goodies are easy to make and irresistible.

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons melted butter (1/4 stick)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 8 ounces chocolate chips or bark
• 2/3 cup crumbled Butterfinger bars
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup peanut butter (avoid organic options)
• 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
• Optional garnishes: extra crushed Butterfinger bars, festive sprinkles, or coarse sea salt

Preparation

Step 1: Get the Dough Started

1. Melt the butter and whisk in the peanut butter in a mixing bowl. Blend until smooth and creamy using an electric or stand mixer set on medium speed.

Step 2: Flavor with Aromatics

1. Stir in the vanilla essence and mix well.

Step 3: Add Powdered Sugar

1. Gradually add the powdered sugar while blending on low speed. To ensure everything is mixed evenly, scrape down the bowl edges.

Step 4: Crunch Time

1. Carefully combine the crumbled Butterfinger bars and graham cracker crumbs.

Step 5: Prepare the Balls

1. Spread out a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Measure out about 1 to 1½ teaspoons of dough, shape it into tidy balls, and place them on the baking sheet.

Step 6: Chill the Dough

1. Place the balls in the freezer for about 30 minutes, or until they are firm.

Step 7: Chocolate Symphony

1. Once the dough balls have chilled, melt the chocolate. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate chips or bark for 30 seconds at 50% power, stirring after each interval. Continue until fully melted and smooth.

Step 8: Apply Finishing Touches

1. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, covering completely or partially as desired.
2. Sprinkle with additional crushed Butterfinger bars, festive sprinkles, or a pinch of coarse sea salt.

Step 9: Indulge

1. Allow the chocolate to set completely before enjoying your Butterfinger Bliss Balls.
