• 3. Finely crush the butterfingers., in a blender if possible, or placing them in a ziplock bag and rolling over with a rolling pin would work. Set aside.
• 4. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter until soft and creamy. Then add in peanut butter, mix until combined well.
• 5. Dump in the butterfingers crumbs. Mix until fully combined.
• 6. Slowly mix in powdered sugar. As you can see we've lost the bright orange color of the butterfingers. Since looks are a good portion of the brains way to taste...I added in some orange coloring to help it return to the look of butterfingers. Totally optional...
• 7. Once all is mixed well and desired color is achieved add in 1 TBS of milk until you have reached the desired consistency. I used 2 in my icing, as always I like mine to be a bit stiff to hold up to my pipping habits! :)
