This oh-so-simple Butterfinger Pie is a chocolate peanut butter lovers dream. It couldn’t be easier to make. The creamy no-bake peanut butter filling is chocked full of crushed Butterfinger candy bars. Using a prepared graham cracker crust makes preparation an absolute cinch. Don’t worry about cutting it, just put it in the middle of the table and pass out spoons and let everyone dig in.
Butterfinger Pie
This butterfinger pie is my take on a classic Pillsbury recipe. Pillsbury has been inspiring home cooks for decades and I’m no different. In their recipe, they put the peanut butter filling into a refrigerated crust that had been blind baked and cooled. That’s not difficult but, for the purpose of simplifying even further, I use a prepared graham cracker crust. It literally whips-up in minutes and makes for an easy sweet fix any time of year.
Other No Bake Desserts To Try
Whether it’s warm weather and baking doesn’t appeal to you or you’re simply short on time, no bake desserts can be a lifesaver. Perhaps you’d like a no bake cherry cheesecake or red velvet icebox pie from right here in the MSSK recipe index.
