Description

Butterfinger Caramel Delight Bars offer chocolate lovers a perfect blend of crunchy peanut butter candy and silky caramel. Layers of sweet indulgence meld together, creating a rich dessert that satisfies deep chocolate cravings with each irresistible bite.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 (10 oz) bag Butterfinger Bites
  • 1 (11 oz) bag of Caramel bits
  • 6 ½ graham crackers

Binding Ingredients:

  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) milk

Finishing Ingredient:

  • 2 ounces (56 grams) semi-sweet chocolate (for drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Meticulously prepare a 9×9 inch (22.86×22.86 centimeters) baking pan by lining it with aluminum foil, ensuring excess foil hangs over the edges for effortless removal. Generously coat the foil with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Create a foundational layer by carefully arranging graham crackers across the entire pan base, strategically breaking pieces to achieve complete coverage.
  3. Uniformly distribute mini marshmallows over the graham cracker foundation, creating a soft, pillowy surface.
  4. Combine caramel bits and whole milk in a microwave-safe container, heating for approximately 1 minute. Gently stir the mixture, continuing to heat in 30-second increments until achieving a completely smooth, liquid consistency.
  5. Delicately cascade the molten caramel across the marshmallow layer, using a spatula to ensure even distribution. Expect slight marshmallow melting during this process, which is completely normal.
  6. Generously scatter chopped Butterfinger Bites over the caramel, gently pressing them to secure their placement within the sticky surface.
  7. Melt semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, utilizing 30-second intervals and stirring between each heating cycle until achieving a silky, liquid texture. Artfully drizzle the melted chocolate across the Butterfinger layer.
  8. Refrigerate the assembled dessert for a minimum of 1 hour, allowing all components to solidify and merge into a cohesive treat.
  9. Once thoroughly chilled, lift the dessert from the pan using the overhanging foil edges. Slice into individual bars and serve immediately for optimal enjoyment.

Notes

  • Create a non-stick surface by lining the pan with foil, ensuring easy removal and smooth cutting of delectable bars.
  • Graham cracker base provides a crunchy foundation that perfectly complements the gooey caramel and marshmallow layers.
  • Melting caramel carefully prevents burning and creates a silky smooth coating that binds all ingredients together.
  • Chopped Butterfinger adds a delightful crunch and signature peanut butter flavor to the rich dessert.
  • Drizzling chocolate on top transforms the bars into a visually stunning and indulgent treat that looks professionally made.
  • Chilling allows layers to set firmly, making cutting and serving much easier while intensifying the flavor combinations.
