Ingredients

  • 1 cup Candy corn
  • 1 cup Peanut butter (smooth)
  • 2 cups Milk chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut oil (optional, for smoothing chocolate)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing the edges to overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, add the candy corn. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until fully melted and smooth (typically about 2 minutes).

Step 3

Immediately stir in the peanut butter until fully combined with the melted candy corn. The mixture will become quite thick as it cools, so work quickly.

Step 4

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it into an even layer using a spatula or clean hands.

Step 5

Place the dish in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set completely.

Step 6

In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each, until completely melted and smooth.

Step 7

Remove the set peanut butter mixture from the baking dish and cut it into bar shapes of your desired size.

Step 8

Dip each bar into the melted chocolate to coat completely, using a fork to lift and allow excess chocolate to drip off.

Step 9

Place the coated bars on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and allow them to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator for faster results.

Step 10

Store the homemade Butterfingers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
