Directions
-
Begin by placing the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat these ingredients together until smooth and creamy. This step creates a tremendous base for your lush filling.
-
Carefully fold in the whipped topping and peanut butter using a spatula. Combine the ingredients until they are well incorporated, ensuring no streaks of cream cheese remain. The mixture should be light and fluffy with a tremendous peanut butter flavor!
-
Take a dish of your choice, maybe a 9×13 inch pan, and layer the bottom with the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies. This forms your first layer and will provide a great crunch and chocolaty goodness.
-
Once the cookie layer is laid down, spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cookies. Use a spatula to smooth it out, allowing the filling to fill in the gaps and create a beautiful layer.
-
Next, add another layer of the crushed cookies on top of the cream cheese mixture. Follow this with the remaining cream cheese mixture, ensuring it’s spread uniformly over the cookies. This ensures that each slice of your Butterfinger Lush will have layers of flavor.
-
If desired, top your creation with extra whipped topping. Adding crushed Butterfinger candies on top can offer a tremendous visual appeal and an additional crunch to the dessert. This step allows for creativity in presentation!
-
Finally, refrigerate your Butterfinger Lush for at least 4 hours, but it’s best if you let it chill overnight. This cooling time allows the flavors to meld together beautifully, ensuring a delicious experience when you are ready to serve.
