Can you use artificial sweetner in place of powerded sugar,would also use sugar free cool whip but of course have to have butterfingers . Trying to cut down on sugar. Thanks
Love butterfingers. Could you use artifical sweetner in place of powerded sugar, & also I would use sugar free coolwhip, trying to cut down on the amt. of real sugar.
Thanks Joyce
This will be my second time making it. I used a regular graham cracker crust and it turned out awesome! Everyone loves this pie. Great recipe, thank you for sharing
Getting ready to make this. Do you think 5 1.9oz bars would be enough ?
Can also use Heath Bit ‘o Brickle chips and mini choc. chips.
Then it wouldn’t be Butterfinger Pie!!…LOL
Mine is in the fridge right now! We had some filling left over because I used tub cream cheese instead, and we are going to use it as a fruit dip. The bowl was licked clean!
C ant wait to try the pie I already had one of the other one with apples in it was wonderful
Thanks for sharing. Could this recipe be made into a Trifle?
I think that would be excellent if you made a trifle with this filling and some cut up pound cake or whatever you normally use for a trifle. I may be trying that myself soon!
I ate a piece at a restaurant and it was delicious couldn’t wait to look it up on Google Thanks
Have to make 2 of these for family get-together. Nephew’s girlfried takes one and puts it in the freezer for her and daughter😂😂
Was wonsdering if this could be made in to a Trifle? I will try it as is soon. Thanks for sharing.Chris JS
I did not use peanut butter or the pie crust. Used a baking dish, added seedless green grapes. Also, can be used as fruit dip.
I like seedless green grapes in the pie. Also, works as a fruit dip.
I make the same pie but with crushed pineapple.
For this butterfinger pie I recommend 1 cup powdered sugar and two cream cheese and may be less peanut butter.
I’m sitting here eating the pie as I type this and it’s alittle to sweet.
I agree. I was going to half the powdered sugar next time. It’s super tasty but REALLY sweet with all of those delicious candy bars.
I also made my own graham cracker crust and added a bit of cinnamon and baked it first. Yummy!
Made my own oreo cookie crust for this recipe which was easy to make in its entirety…..so so good!
Tried this recipe and by far the best I’ve ate yet. Thanks for sharing.
It is really good isn’t it? 🙂
Any way to make this WITHOUT cream cheese??? My family and I hate it……. suggestions please!!
You can try using ricotta cheese.
What about Mascarpone?
What about one of the hazelnut spreads.
So change the whole recipe. Is hazelnut spread and hazelnut candies. Use coconut and some type of coconut cream pudding. All it takes is just a little imagination to change the recipe around, and I am sure it will taste great
I made this but my recipe doesn’t call for powdered sugarlll
Making this for our thanksgiving dessert
How many full sized bars can be substituted in place of all those tiny fun sized ones
I would use 6 of the 2.1-ounce size.
I’m about to make this. Do you think 5 of the 1.9 oz bars would be sufficient
It calls for 12.5 ounces of candy, so whatever the math dictates for different size candy bars.
12.5 (amount this calls for divided by 1.9 size bar you are asking about =6.57 or a little more than 6 and a half 1.9 oz bars….hope this helps
Thank you so much! YUM!!!
