Steps:
- Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and line with parchment paper.

Stir in the peanut butter and the ground roasted peanuts. Spread into an even layer in the prepared baking dish and let cool completely until set, about 30 minutes. Use the parchment paper to help you lift the candy out of the baking dish. Cut into 1-by-2-inch pieces using a pastry wheel or pizza cutter.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt the chocolate chips in 30 second increments in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth (see Cook's Note). Dip each piece of candy into the chocolate, using a fork to turn and coat. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pieces of candy. Drizzle the chocolate decoratively over the top of the chocolate-coated candy. Let the chocolate cool and set up completely.

EASY BUTTER FINGERS CANDY
Sometimes I am embarrassed to tell people how easy this delicious candy is to make. It tastes very much like a famous crunchy peanut candy bar, and can be made in about 10 minutes (total time)! I like to buy a lot candy corn right after Halloween when it is on sale so it can be a very inexpensive candy to make. Sometimes I drizzle some melted milk chocolate on top of the semisweet chocolate after it's cooled just for decoration.
