3 Ingredient Homemade Butterfinger Candy! OMG...better than original!

It's Halloween candy season!  Woohoo!  I love Butterfingers - yumm-o!  A few years ago, I tasted homemade butterfingers at a tailgate.  Goodness gracious...they were outstanding.  And, with just 3 ingredients, what could be easier?  A key ingredient is candy corn?!  Luckily, it's everywhere this time of year.  Make up a batch for your next tailgate or for an upcoming Halloween party!

3 Ingredient Homemade Butterfinger Candy

16 oz candy corn
16 oz peanut butter
3 cups chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet or combo) or chocolate candy coating

Line 8x8 or 9x9 pan with wax paper.  Melt candy corn in microwave for 30 second increments, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth.  Add peanut butter and stir until smooth.  Place in freezer until firm (about 15 minutes).  While candy is hardening, line cookie sheet with wax paper.

When candy is firm, remove from freezer and cut into "snack size" (about 2"x1") pieces.  Place chocolate chips in clean bowl and melt in microwave at 30 second increments, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth.  Using a fork, dip the candy pieces in chocolate, turning to coat.  Place on wax paper to cool.  Place in freezer to set, store in cool dry place.
