Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 12 ounces candy corn

  • 4 standard size Butterfinger bars, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Line an 8x8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the candy corn and creamy peanut butter in a large microwave-safe glass bowl.
  3. Heat in the microwave on high for 60 seconds, then stir.
  4. If needed, heat for an additional 30 seconds until the candy corn is completely melted into a smooth paste.
  5. Fold in the white chocolate chips until fully melted by the residual heat.
  6. Stir in the vanilla extract until incorporated.
  7. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface.
  8. Sprinkle the crushed Butterfinger pieces evenly over the top and press gently into the fudge.
  9. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours until set.

Notes

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. For best results, use natural peanut butter for an authentic flavor profile. Ensure the Butterfinger pieces are crushed into coarse bits rather than fine dust to maintain the signature crunch.
