Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package mini graham cracker pie crusts (or regular pie crusts, cut into smaller portions)

- 1 cup Butterfinger candy bars, crushed
- 1/2 cup whipped cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)
- Additional crushed Butterfinger for garnish
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat the whipped cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Slowly add the heavy cream to the mixture and continue to beat until soft peaks form, creating a whipped cream texture.
- Fold in the crushed Butterfinger candy pieces, leaving a few for garnish.
- Carefully spoon or pipe the whipped mixture into the mini graham cracker crusts, smoothing the top with a spoon or spatula.
- Drizzle caramel sauce over the top of each mini pie.
- Optional: Drizzle melted chocolate chips over the pies for an extra touch of sweetness.
- Top with the remaining crushed Butterfinger pieces for garnish.
- Chill the pies in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use homemade caramel sauce.
- You can use any type of pie crust, but mini graham cracker crusts work wonderfully for these pies.
- For a touch of crunch, add extra Butterfinger pieces on top right before serving.
