Ingrédients
For the base
- 4 cups Rice Krispies The base for this treat; gives it that signature crunch.
- 1 cup mini marshmallows These add sweetness and bind everything together.

Instructions
Preparation
- Start by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure to chop your Butterfinger bars in small pieces for even distribution.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Take your time with this step to ensure the butter melts fully without browning.
- Once the butter is melted, add in the mini marshmallows. Stir continuously until they are completely melted and smooth, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and add the Rice Krispies. Mix well until every piece is coated with the marshmallow mixture.
- Gently fold in the chopped Butterfinger bars to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Prepare a greased 9×13 inch pan. Press the mixture firmly into the pan using a spatula or your well-greased hands to ensure an even layer.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of your pressed treat.
- Let your Butterfinger Rice Krispie Treats cool to room temperature, allowing them to set up nicely before cutting.
- Once cooled, slice into squares and serve at room temperature for the best texture.
