Butterfinger Bliss Balls

Ingredients:

4 tablespoons melted butter (1/4 stick)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces chocolate chips or bark
2/3 cup crumbled Butterfinger bars
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter (avoid organic options)
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
Optional garnishes: extra crushed Butterfinger bars, festive sprinkles, or coarse sea salt

Prepare the Dough: Melt the butter and whisk it together with peanut butter in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy, using an electric or stand mixer set on medium speed.
Enhance with Flavors: Stir in vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
Incorporate Powdered Sugar: Gradually add powdered sugar while mixing on low speed, ensuring even blending by scraping down the bowl sides.
Add Crunch: Gently fold in crumbled Butterfinger bars and graham cracker crumbs until well combined.
Shape and Chill: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop about 1 to 1½ teaspoons of dough, shape into balls, and place them on the baking sheet.
Chill the Dough: Freeze the balls for approximately 30 minutes until firm.
Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips at 50% power for 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
Coat Balls: Dip each chilled ball into melted chocolate, fully coating or leaving some peanut butter mixture visible as desired.
Optional Garnish: Sprinkle additional crushed Butterfinger bars, festive sprinkles, or a pinch of sea salt on top.
Serve and Store: Enjoy the Butterfinger Bliss Balls once the chocolate has set. Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.

Note: Natural peanut butters may be oily, affecting the texture.
