Preparation
  1. Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

  3. Stir in the melted butter and peanut butter until evenly coated.
  4. Press this mixture into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
Layering
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  2. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the pressed base in the baking dish.
  3. Drizzle the caramel sauce generously on top of the melted chocolate.
  4. Sprinkle any remaining crushed Butterfingers on top for added crunch.
Setting
  1. Refrigerate the bars for at least an hour to allow them to set.
  2. Once set, lift them out using the parchment paper and cut into squares.

Notes

If your chocolate doesn’t melt smoothly, add a teaspoon of vegetable oil. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. These bars can be made ahead of time for convenience.
