Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 8 oz whipped topping, thawed
  • 4 Butterfinger bars, coarsely crushed
  • 1/2 cup chocolate ganache

Method
 

  1. Beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  2. Fold the thawed whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula until fully combined.
  3. Gently stir in half of the crushed Butterfinger bars.
  4. Spoon the mousse mixture into six serving glasses.
  5. Drizzle a portion of the chocolate ganache over the first mousse layer.
  6. Repeat the layers if desired and top with the remaining crushed Butterfinger bars.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to allow the mousse to set.

Notes

Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps in your mousse. Chilling for at least 4 hours is essential for the mousse to set properly and for the flavors to meld. You can store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, though the crunch of the candy bar will soften over time.
