This cool and creamy Butterfinger Pie is the stuff dreams are made of. It’s a no-bake dessert that’s so easy to make. Perfect for using up leftover candy and also a great excuse to buy some Butterfingers!
A chocolate oreo crust is filled with a rich and creamy filling with peanut butter and lots of crushed Butterfinger Candy bars.
Butterfingers are so much fun to make desserts with. Love this Butterfinger Lush! It’s one of the most popular recipes on Spicy Southern Kitchen.
Not only are Butterfingers one of the most delicious candies ever, they’re super easy to crush and once crushed, that awesome Butterfinger flavor is easily distributed throughout the entire deesert.
Every little bite of this Butterfinger Pie has lots of butterfinger flavor.
And little bites are what you’ll want to take! This is an ultra rich, creamy, and sweet dessert. A little goes a long way. But it’s so hard to not go back for seconds.
Type Of Peanut Butter To Use
For best results, use a no-stir peanut butter like Jif or Skippy. I have not tried this recipe with natural peanut butter.
Recipe Tips
- A hand-held electric mixer or electric stand mixer both work well for mixing the filling.
- You can use a homemade whipped cream instead of Cool Whip. You will need about 3 cups.
Storage
Wrap with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

I wonder how recipes with butterfinger will be now that they have ruined the butterfinger with this new recipe. Why mess with perfection?? I am so sad that my favorite candy bar taste different now!
What change have they made to the butterfinger? I haven’t bought any lately.
Ik. Its not good anymore. I’m going to try to find some old recipe one’s to make this.
I noticed it immediately. So not as good as before. Used to be my favorite but not so much now.
Could I make this the day before?
Dang Josi, chill out…..lmao
Recipe looks delish
I’m planning on making this for a holiday gathering but wanted to know how early the pie mixture could be made in advance. I would love to mix it all two days before (minus the candy) and then put it all together the morning of, if possible. Any advice on the feasibility of this?
Rich and creamy! I sent a picture of my finish product to my daughter and told her the ingredients. She replied: I just want to stick my face in it! My husband doesn’t want to share it with the friends I made it for and who will be here shortly.
Made this for my local firefighters. They loved it.
This pie is so amazing. I could have eaten the whole thing!
Good idea on freezing the candy bars.
Just a suggestion…. if you’ll put the Butterfingers into the freezer first, then you can just use a hammer or the back of a big spoon and crush them inside their own wrappers. Then just cut the end of the wrapper and perfectly crushed candy pours out with no mess.
Sound like a good ideal to me
Good idea!!
What about when candy defrost? Won’t be too moist or mushy?
I have NEVER, EVER understood why people want to try a recipe but change EVERYTHING about it. If you don’t like it as written, create your own for crying out loud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW need a snickers instead!!??
lmao!! That was great!
LOTFLMAO!!! Great one !!
