Butterfinger Muddy Buddies – The perfect treat to make any day of the year! So addicting you will not be able to stop. 

With Halloween being right around the corner, I thought this would be a perfect recipe for any Halloween festivities you may have. BUTTERFINGER® Fun-Size is the perfect ingredient to add to your sweet treats, especially muddy buddies.

It’s almost a great recipe to use up any leftover candy. According to my husband, no one has any Halloween candy leftover. That may be true for some. If so, please hide a couple of BUTTERFINGER® Fun-Size to use! You will not be disappointed.

You may also know muddy buddies to be called puppy chow. No, it’s not for dogs by any means. It’s a highly addicting and fun treat for humans of all ages, especially us adults. You know you secretly want to hide any extra candy for yourself. Make it fun and make a batch of this Butterfinger muddy buddies.

We also love our Butterfinger Blondies and Butterfinger cheesecake bars! The perfect way to use candy, in my opinion.

If you have ever made muddy buddies before, you know how incredibly easy it is to assemble. It only requires five ingredients and minimal steps. Just remember to have a gallon sized ziplock bags on hand! You should also be able to find chocolate candy melts in your local grocery or craft store.

Right now you can stop by your local Walmart and to pick up a bag of BUTTERFINGER® Fun-Size and use Ibotta to earn a $1.00 off. Check out even more recipes using Butterfinger Fun-Size!
