Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

½ cup peanut butter, or as needed
48 thin wheat crackers (such as Wheat Thins®)
½ cup chocolate chips
2 tablespoons butter, or as needed

Steps:

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread 2 to 3 teaspoons peanut butter onto each of 24 crackers; top each with another cracker to create a "sandwich."
Arrange "sandwiches" on the prepared baking sheet. Chill in freezer until peanut butter is firm, about 1 hour.
Heat chocolate and butter together in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 20-second intervals in a microwave oven, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
Dip each "sandwich" in the melted chocolate mixture to coat and arrange onto the prepared baking sheet.
Chill coated sandwiches in freezer until chocolate is set, about 1 hour.

Tips

If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender or a mortar and pestle to grind the peanuts and sugar.
For a creamier peanut butter, use creamy peanut butter.
You can add a pinch of salt to the peanut butter mixture to taste.
Be careful not to overcook the chocolate mixture, or it will become grainy.
For a more intense peanut butter flavor, use dark chocolate.
If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the chocolate mixture by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens immediately, it is ready.
You can use a variety of toppings for your Mock Butterfinger, such as chopped peanuts, crushed graham crackers, or even bacon bits.
Store your Mock Butterfinger in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
