Butterfinger Grape Salad
This sweet and creamy salad has a delightful balance of flavors. The tangy sour cream and smooth cream cheese provide a rich base, while the sweetness from the grapes and powdered sugar adds a fruity touch. The crushed Butterfingers bring a delicious crunch, with their chocolatey peanut butter flavor adding a unique twist. The optional nuts add an extra layer of texture, but the salad is perfectly enjoyable without them.
