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.

HOMEMADE BUTTERFINGER BITES



Homemade Butterfinger Bites image

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:

  • Choose fresh ingredients: Using high-quality ingredients will result in a better-tasting candy.

  • Be patient: Making candy takes time and patience. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with subpar candy.
  • Store your candy properly: Candy should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This will help keep it fresh and prevent it from becoming sticky.
