Temps de cuisson, Temps total, Rendement

30 minutes, 45 minutes, 24 boules

Now, let’s whip these up!

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Butterfinger bars, powdered sugar, creamy peanut butter, and graham cracker crumbs. Mix until the ingredients are well blended and the mixture resembles a dough—that satisfying, slightly sticky texture! 🤗

2. Now comes the fun part! Take small portions of this delicious mixture and roll them into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place these delightful little gems on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

3. Time to melt some chocolate magic! In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Heat them in 30-second intervals, giving them a good stir after each round until the mixture is smooth and velvety.

4. Grab a fork and dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure they’re generously coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before you return them to the parchment paper. It’s like giving them a little chocolate bath! 🛁

5. Once all the balls are coated, pop them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set.

And voilà! Your Butterfinger balls are now ready to be devoured! 🎉 Make sure to store any leftovers (if there are any!) in an airtight container in the fridge. I doubt they’ll last long, though!

Enjoy these tasty bites and share the love! 💖
