Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature (½ stick)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ¾ cup Graham cracker crumbs (from about 7 cracker sheets)
- ½ cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars plus more for garnish
- 8 ounces chocolate bark
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the peanut butter and softened butter on medium speed until well combined.
- Add the vanilla and mix to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs.
- Add the crushed butterfinger and fold it gently into the dough.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and scoop out 1-tablespoon-sized portions.
- Roll the buckeyes into smooth balls and then place them in the freezer to chill completely– about 30 minutes.
- When the buckeyes have chilled, melt the chocolate bark in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Dip the buckeyes into the chocolate, covering them either partly or all the way– however you like your buckeyes!
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle over additional crushed butterfingers or some flakey sea salt. Allow the chocolate to set completely and enjoy.
