EASY BUTTER FINGERS CANDY



Easy Butter Fingers Candy image

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.

Bent on using up a stash of leftover candy corn, I decided to experiment. Turns out, if you melt it, mix it with peanut butter and coat the balls with chocolate, you get a softer, denser version of a Butterfinger bite. Who knew? They're delicious! -Melissa Hansen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Tips for Making Butterfinger Candy:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Make sure the butter is cold before you cut it into the flour mixture. This will help to create a flaky crust.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and make it easier to work with.
  • Bake the crust in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the crust is evenly cooked.
  • Let the crust cool completely before filling it. This will help to prevent the filling from melting.
  • Use a variety of toppings to create a unique and delicious treat. Some popular toppings include chopped nuts, candy pieces, and whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Butterfinger candy is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and satisfying snack that will be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give butterfinger candy a try!
