Step-by-Step Instructions for Butterfinger Candy Popcorn
  1. Begin by popping the popcorn kernels using your preferred method—microwave, stovetop, or air popper. Transfer the fluffy popcorn into a large bowl.
  2. In a large pot, add 1/2 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. Melt gently, stirring occasionally.
  3. Once butter is melted, add 4 cups mini marshmallows and 1 cup creamy peanut butter. Stir for 3-5 minutes until smooth.
  4. Pour the melted mixture over the popped popcorn and gently fold to coat evenly.
  5. Fold in 1 cup of chopped Butterfinger pieces into the coated popcorn.
  6. Spread the mixture evenly on a lined cookie sheet.
  7. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup of chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  8. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the popcorn mixture and sprinkle remaining Butterfinger pieces on top.
  9. Let the chocolate set for about 30 minutes before breaking into clusters.
