How to Make Butterfinger Treats — Step by Step
1️⃣ Crush & Melt
Start by crushing the Butterfinger bars into small bits — a ziplock bag and a rolling pin work great here. Melt your butter until smooth.
2️⃣ Mix the Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and melted butter. Stir until smooth.
3️⃣ Add the Crunch
Gradually stir in the graham cracker crumbs and confectioners’ sugar until fully combined and thick. Fold in the crushed Butterfinger pieces — don’t overmix, you want those crispy bites!
4️⃣ Press & Pour
Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the pan — really pack it down so the bars hold together.
Pour the melted chocolate candy coating evenly over the top and spread to the edges.
5️⃣ Chill & Slice
Refrigerate for 1–2 hours, or until the chocolate is set and the bars are firm. Lift the whole slab out with the parchment paper, place on a cutting board, and cut into squares or bars.
How to Store
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- Freeze for up to 2 months — just thaw slightly before serving.
Fun Variations
🍫 Swap the chocolate: Use milk, dark, or even white chocolate — all delicious!
🥜 Add a salty touch: Sprinkle a bit of flaky sea salt on top for a sweet-salty twist.
🎉 Go mini: Press the mixture into mini muffin cups for bite-sized treats.
💥 Double the Butterfinger: Mix extra crushed bars into the chocolate layer too!
FAQs
Do I have to use candy coating?
Nope! You can melt chocolate chips with a bit of coconut oil or butter instead.
Can I use crunchy peanut butter?
Sure! Crunchy peanut butter will add even more texture.
Do these hold up well at room temp?
They do — but for the best texture, keep them chilled until serving.
Conclusion
These Butterfinger Treats are the kind of sweet fix you’ll want to make on repeat. No oven, no fuss — just layers of creamy peanut butter, crunchy graham crackers, crushed Butterfingers, and smooth chocolate. Heaven in a square. 💛🍫
