50: Butterfinger bars (Pintested)

Yay! I made it to post 50. Today I finally finished Super Supper Saturday and Sunday. (Betcha can't say that too fast). Which means I cooked all 5 meals featured in All You's magazine for the month of February. I'll post the recipes I did today and yesterday one at a time this week. I want to be able to give them a taste test first. Along with the 5 recipes I cooked in two days, I also Pintested the butterfinger bar recipe I saw on Pinterest. Needless to say it was simple and a big hit.



Butterfinger Bars


What you need:

Candy corn 2 cups
1 cup of peanut butter (I used creamy)
chocolate for melting


Excuse the oils in the background. It looks like I'm collecting or something. 

1. First place the candy corn in a microwave save bowl. Microwave for 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds depending on your microwave until candy corn is fully melted.


2. Add peanut butter to hot candy corn and mix well.

You have to admit that this looks yummy!!

3. Pour into a glass 8X8 pan and let cool. (I put my in the freezer to speed up the cooling process.)


4. Cut into squares. Heat up chocolate for one minute in the microwave until melted.

5. Dip bars in chocolate and place on baking sheet with wax paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to harden the chocolate.


Recipe rating: 5/5

So good you can't really tell the difference between the actual ButterFinger and this homemade version.
Did I mention it's pretty cost effective? I think I paid $6.00 and it made about 16 bars. :)
