1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
03 -
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
04 -
1 cup powdered sugar

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs

8 ounces chocolate bark or chocolate chips
# Steps:
01 -
In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla extract until fully blended and creamy.

Gradually add the powdered sugar while mixing, followed by the graham cracker crumbs. Fold in the crushed Butterfinger candy until incorporated.

Scoop level portions of the mixture and roll into balls, each about 1 inch in diameter. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for approximately 30 minutes until firm.

Place the chocolate bark or chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler.

Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate to fully coat, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place coated balls onto the prepared tray. Optionally, drizzle with additional chocolate or sprinkle with extra crushed Butterfinger.

Return to the refrigerator and chill until the chocolate is set. Serve chilled for best texture.
