Ingredients
Scale
Base Layer
- 6 ½ sheets of graham crackers
Fillings
- 2 cups of mini marshmallows
- 1 (11 oz) bag of caramel bits (or unwrapped caramels)
- 2 tablespoons of milk
- 1 (10 oz) bag of coarsely chopped Butterfinger bites
Topping
- 2 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate, for drizzling
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, ensuring the foil extends over the edges for easy removal later. Spray the foil lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Layer Ingredients: Create the base by arranging the 6 ½ sheets of graham crackers evenly in the prepared pan. Next, sprinkle 2 cups of mini marshmallows over the graham crackers. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the caramel bits with 2 tablespoons of milk, stirring occasionally until smooth. Pour the melted caramel evenly over the marshmallows. Then, sprinkle the coarsely chopped Butterfinger bites over the caramel layer.
- Drizzle Chocolate: Melt the 2 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate gently in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the layered bars to add a rich finishing touch.
- Chill and Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator and allow the bars to chill until the chocolate hardens and the layers set, approximately 1 hour.
- Serve: Once set, use the foil edges to lift the bars out of the pan. Cut into 12 squares and serve your delicious Butterfinger Caramel Crunch Bars.
Notes
- For easier cutting, chill the bars for at least 1 hour or until firm.
- Use chopped Butterfinger bites for texture; whole pieces can be substituted if preferred.
- Store leftover bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- To melt caramel bits easily, use microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between.
