Ingredients
Scale
- 4 Butterfinger candy bars, crushed
- 20 soft caramels (like Kraft or Werther’s)
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups chocolate chips or melting wafers
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional, for smooth melting)
Instructions
- Crush the Butterfinger Bars – Place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs. Set aside.
- Melt the Caramels – In a saucepan over low heat, melt the caramels with heavy cream, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- Make the Filling – In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stir in the melted caramel and mix well.
- Add Crunch – Fold in the crushed Butterfinger pieces. Mix until evenly distributed.
- Chill the Mixture – Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes until firm.
- Form the Truffles – Scoop small portions and roll into bite-sized balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
- Freeze – Freeze the truffles for 15–20 minutes so they hold their shape.
- Melt the Chocolate – Microwave chocolate chips with coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted.
- Dip the Truffles – Using a fork, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off.
- Garnish and Set – Sprinkle with extra Butterfinger crumbs and let the chocolate harden. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- For a salted caramel version, sprinkle sea salt on top before the chocolate sets.
- Try white chocolate for a sweeter variation.
- If the mixture gets too sticky to roll, lightly grease your hands with butter.
