Instructions

Prepare the Base: Crush the graham crackers into small pieces and set aside. This will form the crunchy base and texture throughout the bars.
Melt and Mix: In a large microwave-safe bowl or on stovetop, gently melt the caramel bits and mini marshmallows together, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Add milk to help create a smooth, sticky mixture that will bind the ingredients.
Add Candy and Combine: Stir in the crushed graham crackers and Butterfinger bites into the melted caramel-marshmallow mixture, ensuring everything is well coated and combined evenly.
Shape the Bars: Transfer the mixture into a lined or greased pan, pressing it down firmly and evenly to create a compact layer. Refrigerate for at least one hour to set the bars.
Chocolate Drizzle and Finishing Touch: Melt your preferred chocolate and drizzle over the top of the set bars. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt across the bars to enhance the flavors.
Serve: Once the chocolate drizzle has hardened slightly, cut the confection into 12 bars. Serve chilled or at room temperature for best enjoyment.

Notes

Use digestive biscuits as a substitute for graham crackers if unavailable.
Regular marshmallows can be chopped if mini marshmallows are not on hand.
Unwrapped caramel candies can replace caramel bits but require extra melting time.
Customize the candy bites used to your favorite chocolate treats for variety.
Chill bars thoroughly to ensure clean cutting and better texture.
Store leftover bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
