Butterfinger Pie
Description
Butterfinger Pie starts with a crushed Oreo cookie crust combined with melted butter and baked briefly before cooling. The filling is made by whipping heavy cream to stiff peaks, then blending in sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Chopped Butterfinger bars are folded into this mixture, which is poured into the chilled crust and frozen to firm up.
Once set, the pie is topped with another layer of whipped cream sweetened with powdered sugar and vanilla, then garnished with more chopped Butterfingers. The pie can be served shortly after topping for a softer texture or frozen longer for a firmer consistency. It combines the crunch and peanut butter-candy flavor of Butterfinger bars with a smooth, creamy base in a chocolate crust.
The pie should be stored in the freezer and can be made ahead to allow sufficient time for freezing. When thawed slightly in the refrigerator, it softens enough to slice without losing shape. This treat offers a rich and indulgent candy-flavored dessert option that highlights Butterfinger candy bars as the star ingredient.
