EASY BUTTER FINGERS CANDY



Easy Butter Fingers Candy image

Sometimes I am embarrassed to tell people how easy this delicious candy is to make. It tastes very much like a famous crunchy peanut candy bar, and can be made in about 10 minutes (total time)! I like to buy a lot candy corn right after Halloween when it is on sale so it can be a very inexpensive candy to make. Sometimes I drizzle some melted milk chocolate on top of the semisweet chocolate after it's cooled just for decoration.

EASY BUTTERFINGER® CAKE



Easy Butterfinger® Cake image

Angel food cake, Butterfinger® candy bars and Cool Whip® are the well known favorites in this delightful (and easy) no-bake dessert. Looks great in a trifle bowl. I don't even like Butterfinger® bars and I thoroughly enjoy this stuff!! You can do this in a 9x13-inch pan as well, but the trifle looks so nice!

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you begin cooking, ensure all your ingredients and equipment are ready and measured out. This will make the cooking process much smoother.
  • Use a Heavy-Bottomed Pot: When making the candy coating, it's important to use a heavy-bottomed pot to evenly distribute heat and prevent scorching.
  • Candy Coating Temperature: It's crucial to heat the candy coating to the correct temperature. If it's not hot enough, it won't set properly. If it's too hot, it will burn.
  • Working with Chocolate: Chocolate is delicate and can easily seize if not handled properly. To prevent this, avoid adding water or other liquids directly to the chocolate. Also, temper the chocolate before using it to ensure a smooth, glossy finish.
  • Chilling: Chilling the candy coating and the peanut butter mixture helps them set properly and makes them easier to handle.
  • Storing: Store the finished Butterfinger candy bars in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. They will keep well for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

With careful preparation and attention to detail, you can easily create delicious homemade Butterfinger candy bars that are perfect for satisfying your sweet cravings. Experiment with different variations, such as using different types of nuts or adding different flavorings, to create unique and tasty treats. Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting, this recipe is a great way to challenge yourself and create something truly special. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and let's get baking!
