Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of peanut butter and ½ cup of softened butter using an electric mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until creamy.
  2. Pour in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix on low speed until thoroughly combined.
  3. Gradually add 2 cups of powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until a thick dough-like consistency is achieved.
  4. Fold in 1 cup of graham cracker crumbs and 1 cup of crushed Butterfinger bars gently to maintain texture.
  5. Form balls of about 1 to 1½ tablespoons of the dough and place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  6. Chill the cookie sheet in the freezer for 30 minutes until the balls are firm.
  7. Melt 1 cup of chocolate bark or chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  8. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate and place them back on the parchment sheet; garnish as desired before the chocolate sets.
  9. Let the chocolate harden completely before serving; store any leftovers in the fridge.
