Chocolate cupcakes topped with Butteringer frosting, these Butterfinger Cupcakes will be your new favorite treat! Top them with fun-sized candies and they will be the hit of any party! How do I know? Because I make these all the time for parties and always get rave reviews. The frosting tastes like a DQ Blizzard!
I made a Butterfinger Cupcake Recipe about a year ago and they were AMAZING. But my photos were…not so great back then, so I decided I needed to update them. And now it’s perfect time with the Halloween season kicking into high gear. So maybe you can sneak a few Butterfingers from your kid’s Trick-or-Treat bag and whip up these babies.
I used my little leftover Butterfinger pieces as sprinkles to top off the cupcakes… but you can just eat the left over pieces if you would rather 🙂
I’ve lots more candy bar cupcake recipes!
After making your Snickers Cupcakes yesterday I was thinking I should make butterfinger next! Im so glad you posted this! Looks amazing!
i love butterfinger!! it’s one of my favorite candy bars…and i love cupcakes so naturally they belong together. i can’t wait to try them!
I love the butterfinger frosting! Butterfingers are my favorite candy bar ever. I feel like I could eat this frosting with a spoon. I must remake it! I can’t wait. 🙂
My son’s favorite candy bar! Can’t wait to make these for him.
I made these cupcakes today and they are amazing!
I love Butterfingers and these look delicious 🙂
These taste almost exactly like the Snickers cupcakes you made. In a real butterfingers bar, it’s mostly orange crunchy stuff, not chocolate, but in these cupcakes, the cake is chocolate and there is a little bit of real butterfingers in the frosting but it is overwhelmed by the peanut butter. Any ideas how to make taste more like the real thing?
My son loves Butterfinger candy bars so I am sure he will love your cupcakes.
did you guys really sift the cake mix? seems odd…..
I made these for a friend of mine, big hit. I put a bite size Butterfinger in each cupcake (helps to freeze them first so they don’t get scorched). I also used 3cups of powdered sugar with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of whipping cream in the frosting, made it fluffier.
You totally ROCK! Making these tomorrow for my sweet 12 yr old! Just know they will be great!
These were possibly one of the best recipes for cupcakes I have ever used! Awesome!
Why does the recipe say 3/4 cup powder sugar twice?
Sorry, not sure what happened there… I fixed it!! And it’s 3-4 not 3/4 cup (so anywhere between 3 and 4 cups!)
This is my first time making these cupcakes, they are still in the oven. However I’m concerned that the icing is not going to be enough to top 24 cupcakes carol
This butterfinger cupcake looks so tasty. I really like it.
I just joined the forum so there are so many things I don’t know yet, I hope to have the help of the boards, and I really want to get to know you all on the forum
I can’t describe how delicious the butterfinger cupcake is.
Thank you for sharing these incredible recipes!
Thank you for your wonderful recipe, I tried this recipe and it was delicious
The cakes look so cute
Surely your butterscotch will have a very delicious taste. I like your recipe because it has easy-to-find ingredients and is also very easy to follow.
