Tips:

  • For a richer peanut butter flavor, use homemade peanut butter.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can use the cold water test to check if the sugar syrup is ready. To do this, drop a small amount of the syrup into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, the syrup is ready.
  • If the sugar syrup is too thick, you can add a little bit of hot water and stir until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • To make the peanut butter fingers easier to cut, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to drizzle the chocolate frosting over the peanut butter fingers.

Frosted Peanut Butter Fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dessert that is sure to please everyone.
