Ingredients
- 2 sleeves graham crackers, crushed (about 2 cups crumbs)
- 2 1/2 sticks butter, softened (1 cup or 225g)
- 16 oz (2 cups) powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 cups crunchy peanut butter
- 5 regular-size Butterfinger bars, crushed (about 1 cup)
- 12 oz dark chocolate chips
- Sprinkles for decorating (optional)
Instructions
- Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by sealing in a Ziploc bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar together until smooth and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Add the peanut butter and mix until well combined.
- Stir in the crushed Butterfingers and graham cracker crumbs until a dough forms.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up the mixture.
- Once chilled, scoop and roll the dough into bite-sized balls, placing them on a baking sheet or plate.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
- Place the coated balls back on the sheet and decorate with sprinkles if desired.
- Allow chocolate to set (about 10 minutes) before serving.
Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Recipe Tips
- Add a pinch of sea salt on top before the chocolate sets for a sweet-salty twist.
