Several weeks ago Trent randomly mentioned how much he wanted to try them (he loves all things peanut butter!) so Aiden and I decided to surprise him one afternoon and have them ready for him when he got home from work :)
Preparing to melt the candy corn.
Mixing in the peanut butter.
I read through the comments on the original recipe and one guy mentioned that a 16-ounce jar of peanut butter is almost exactly 1.5 cups! Because who really likes to measure out peanut butter?!
I also read in the comments that some people preferred them thinner so I spread the mixture in a cookie sheet instead.
Seriously SO GOOD!! I will be honest, during the process of dipping in the chocolate I was thinking to myself, "These better be good or I'm not making them again." I forgot how annoying it is to dip things in chocolate and have them still come out looking presentable. I got pretty good by the end though. If anyone has any good tips though, let me know!
And they were definitely worth it! I'm positive we'll be making them again :)
who knew you needed candy corn to make butter fingers? crazy! but they look so good!
