3 (2 1/8 ounce) butterfinger candy bars, frozen and chopped (2.1 oz each)

BUTTERFINGER CHEESECAKE



Butterfinger Cheesecake image

I found this one on razzledazzlerecipes.com my nephew asked me to make him a Butterfinger cheesecake for his 18th birthday and I was surprised to find no posted recipes here on zaar. Anyway this is what I turned up. Hope he likes it. Caution cheesecakes need about 8-10 hours to refrigeration so it's best to make the day before.
