I combined several recipes for Butterfinger pie and peanut butter pie and then added my own special touches. The result was an absolutely perfect pie! Warning: it is extremely rich but addicting. Even those who proclaim it to be too rich keep going back for "just one more bite!"

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Attention all Butterfinger fans, this pie will be your go-to dessert! It's very simple to make and packs a punch of peanut-buttery flavor. Each creamy bite is filled with bits of crunchy Butterfinger goodness. The cream cheese adds a little tanginess. We chose an Oreo crust and it paired well with the chocolate of the candy bar. This is crazy good!
