Description

Butterfinger Caramel Crunch Bars are a no-bake dessert dream—loaded with crushed Butterfinger candy bars, buttery graham cracker crust, gooey caramel, and silky chocolate ganache. These layered bars are sweet, crunchy, and completely irresistible.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed Butterfinger candy bars (about 8 regular-size bars)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup caramel sauce or melted caramel candies
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Sea salt flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
  2. In a bowl, mix crushed Butterfinger bars, melted butter, and graham cracker crumbs until well combined.
  3. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
  4. Pour the caramel sauce over the crust and spread evenly with a spatula.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth.
  6. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the caramel layer.
  7. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes, if using.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set. Lift out using the parchment overhang and cut into bars.

Notes

  • Use a food processor for evenly crushed Butterfingers.
  • For thicker bars, double the recipe and use a 9×13-inch pan.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Bars are easier to cut cleanly when chilled and sliced with a sharp knife.
