Butterfinger Balls

Step 4: Chill the Balls

1. Place the tray of balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
2. Chilling firms them up and makes them easier to dip in chocolate.

Step 5: Melt the Chocolate

1. Break the chocolate into small pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl.
2. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.
   • Alternatively, use a double boiler for gentle melting.

Step 6: Coat the Butterfinger Balls

1. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate.
2. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl, then place the coated ball back onto the parchment-lined tray.

Optional: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle with crushed nuts, sprinkles, or a pinch of sea salt for extra flair.

Step 7: Chill Until Set

1. Once all balls are coated, return the tray to the refrigerator for at least 20–30 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

• Once set, Butterfinger Balls are ready to enjoy.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
• These treats also freeze beautifully — just thaw before serving.

Tips for the Perfect Butterfinger Balls

• Consistency matters: If your balls crumble too easily, add a little more cream cheese to bind them.
• Chocolate variety: Milk chocolate gives a sweeter, classic taste, while dark chocolate adds richness.
• Creative variations: Add a drizzle of caramel or a pinch of sea salt on top for a gourmet touch.
