Ingredients:
1 (16-oz) box of powdered sugar
2½ cups of graham cracker crumbs
5 (1.9-oz) Butterfinger bars, crushed into bits
1¼ cup of butter, melted
1½ cups of crunchy peanut butter (for extra texture!)
1 (24-oz) package of chocolate almond bark or your preferred chocolate candy coating
Instructions:
Mix the Magic:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, crushed Butterfinger bits, melted butter, and crunchy peanut butter. Stir until you have a cohesive mixture begging to be shaped.
Roll ’em Up:
Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls. Get the kids involved or have a moment of Zen rolling these sweet treasures.
Chill Out:
Place the balls on a tray and refrigerate them for 30 minutes. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to coat in chocolate.
Dip in Chocolate:
Melt your chocolate almond bark or candy coating as per the package instructions. Dip each chilled ball into the chocolate, ensuring a generous coating, and then place them on parchment or wax paper.
Set and Serve:
Allow the chocolate-coated balls to sit until the chocolate sets. This is the hard part – waiting to devour them!
