Butterfinger Balls: Your New 5-Ingredient, No-Bake Obsession!

If you’re looking for a dessert that’s simple, indulgent, and guaranteed to disappear fast, Butterfinger Balls are about to become your new obsession. With just five ingredients and no baking required, these little bites of peanut-buttery, chocolatey goodness are perfect for last-minute parties, holiday treats, or whenever your sweet tooth calls. Let’s dive into how to make them step by step!

Ingredients You’ll Need

Before we get rolling, gather the following:

Butterfinger candy bars – roughly chopped
Cream cheese – softened to room temperature
Powdered sugar – for sweetness and structure
Chocolate chips – for coating
Peanut butter – smooth, for extra richness

Tip: You can swap chocolate chips for a chocolate bark or melting chocolate for a smoother coating.

Step 1: Crush the Butterfingers

Start by chopping or crushing your Butterfinger bars into small, even pieces. You want them small enough to mix well but still provide that crunchy, signature texture.

Quick method: Place the candy bars in a sealed plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush them.
Alternative: Chop them finely with a sharp knife.

The goal is to create a crumbly texture that will blend easily with cream cheese.

Step 2: Mix With Cream Cheese

In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Butterfingers with softened cream cheese.

Use a spatula or your hands to fold them together until the mixture is evenly combined.
The cream cheese acts as a binder, helping the candy hold together when shaped into balls.
