Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • 2 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • For the caramel layer:
  • 1 ½ cups caramel candies, unwrapped
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • For the topping:
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup Butterfinger candy, crushed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix crushed Butterfinger bars, flour, powdered sugar, and melted butter until combined.
  3. Press mixture evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 15–20 minutes, until golden brown.
  4. While crust bakes, melt caramel candies with heavy cream in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  5. Pour caramel over warm crust and spread evenly. Let cool for about 10 minutes.
  6. Melt white chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Drizzle over caramel layer.
  7. Sprinkle crushed Butterfinger candy over the top while the white chocolate is still soft.
  8. Let bars cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate until set.
  9. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Swap white chocolate with milk or dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • Sprinkle flaky sea salt over caramel for a salted caramel version.
  • Try other candy bars like Snickers or Reese’s for variation.
  • Add sprinkles or chopped nuts for a festive touch.
  • Make a day ahead — they taste even better after chilling overnight.
