These decadent Butterfinger Balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that’s perfect for any occasion

Step 2: Mix with Cream Cheese

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Butterfinger with the softened cream cheese.
• Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The mixture should be sticky but moldable.

Step 3: Add Powdered Sugar

• Gradually add powdered sugar to the mixture.
• Mix until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture becomes firm enough to form into balls.

Step 4: Shape the Balls

• Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop out portions of the mixture.
• Roll each portion between your hands to form bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
• Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 5: Chill the Balls

• Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
• Chilling helps the balls firm up and makes them easier to coat in chocolate later.

Step 6: Coat in Chocolate

• In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
• Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each Butterfinger Ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated.
• Allow excess chocolate to drip off, then place the balls back on the parchment-lined sheet.

Step 7: Optional Toppings

• While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle crushed peanuts, extra Butterfinger bits, or colorful sprinkles on top for a decorative touch.

Step 8: Final Chill

• Refrigerate the chocolate-coated Butterfinger Balls for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set completely.

Serving and Storage

• Serving: Arrange Butterfinger Balls on a decorative plate or in small cupcake liners for a festive presentation.
• Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. They can also be frozen for longer storage; just thaw before serving.

Tips for Perfect Butterfinger Balls

1. Consistency is key: If the mixture feels too soft to roll, add a little more powdered sugar.
2. Chocolate coating: Tempering the chocolate can give it a shiny finish, but simply melting it works fine too.
3. Crunch factor: Don’t over-process the Butterfinger; you want little chunks for texture.

These decadent Butterfinger Balls are not only a crowd-pleaser but also a fun treat to make with friends or family. Crunchy, creamy, and covered in chocolate, they’re a small bite of pure indulgence that’s hard to resist.
