The Yummiest Butterfinger Cookies

There are cookies…and then there are cookies! You know the kind I mean. The kind that makes the entire house smell like a tiny neighborhood bakery. The kind that makes everyone in the house wander into the kitchen to find out just exactly what is baking that smells so good. This is precisely what happens when I make Butterfinger cookies.

There is something ridiculously good about the combo of a soft, buttery cookie base with crunchy, chocolatey, peanut buttery bits melted all through it. These cookies are the edible version of a comfy, cozy blanket! Every bite contains the perfect mix of chewy & crispy and sweet & salty! Yum!!

And the very best part? you don’t have to be a master baker or even have much experience baking at all to make these cookies. No complicated techniques, no fancy, hard to find ingredients. Just simple, happy baking that ends with crumbs on the counter and chocolate on your fingers. 😊 🍪

Here’s what you will need:

• 🍪 3 Cups All Purpose Flour
• 🍪 1 tsp Baking Soda
• 🍪 1 tsp Baking Powder
• 🍪 1/2 tsp Salt
• 🍪 One Cup Butter At Room Temp. If Using Salted Butter, Omit The Salt Listed Above
• 🍪 1 Cup Sugar
• 🍪 1 Cup Light Brown Sugar
• 🍪 2 tsps Vanilla Extract. Use Mexican Vanilla If You Have It. Adds A Rich Flavor
• 🍪 2 Large Eggs
• 🍪 3 Full Size (Not King) Butterfinger Bars Crushed. I Crush Mine With My Rolling Pin
• 🍪 1 Cup Mini Chocolate Chips. Optional…..Do It!!!😋

Here’s What You Will Need To Do:

• ✅ Mix All Dry Ingredients In A Separate Bowl
• ✅ Cream Butter, Sugar, Brown Sugar & Vanilla Together In Your Mixer
