-
Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and softened butter. Use an electric or stand mixer set to medium speed and blend until the mixture is creamy and uniform.
-
Add Aromatic Notes: Incorporate the vanilla extract and blend thoroughly.
-
Sweeten the Deal: Gradually add the powdered sugar in increments, blending at a low speed. Don’t forget to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
-
Crunch Time: Gently fold in the graham cracker crumbs and crushed Butterfinger bars.
-
Shape ’em Up: Align a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out approximately 1 to 1½ tablespoons of the dough, roll into neat balls, and place on the cookie sheet.
-
Chilling Phase: Freeze the dough balls on the sheet for roughly 30 minutes until they are completely firm.
-
Melting the Chocolate
-
Chocolate Symphony: Once the dough balls are chilled, proceed to melt the chocolate. Utilize a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second spurts at 50% power, stirring in between each interval. Be cautious not to overheat; some lumps should remain and will melt as you stir.
-
Coat and Decorate: Submerge each chilled ball into the luscious melted chocolate. You can fully coat them or leave a bit of the peanut butter mixture exposed.
-
Finishing Touches: Add a sprinkle of additional crushed Butterfinger bars, holiday-themed sprinkles, or a dash of flaky sea salt for that extra pop.
-
The Grand Finale: Allow the chocolate to solidify completely before indulging in your Butterfinger Bliss Balls.
