Butterfinger candy and cookies all in one? Yes, please!
I recently came across these new Nestle Butterfinger Baking Bits and knew I had to try them out. Hubby is a cookie and candy monster so these seemed like they would be right up his alley.
All I did was follow the recipe that was included on the back of the bag. I was glad to see that I already had all the ingredients in my pantry so I was set to go. They are not only easy to make but they are delicious as well.
My Butterfinger cookies turned out so soft with just a bit of crisp at the very outer edge. They have a light peanut butter flavor to them and the Butterfinger candy bits stay a bit crunchy.
These cookies are one of my faves that I’ve ever made. The peanut butter taste isn’t overwhelming like a traditional peanut butter cookie. Just a soft and fluffy cookie with a buttery, light peanut butter flavor. A definite must try!
Ingredients:
- 3 and 1/2 cups flour
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 and 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter - room temp
- 2 eggs
- 10 oz package Nestle Butterfinger Baking Bits
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a bowl; combine flour, soda and salt. Set aside.
- Beat together the butter and sugar until creamy. Beat in the eggs. Gradually add the flour, mixing in between.
- Stir in the Butterfinger Baking Bits.
- Drop by tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving 2 inches in between cookies. Bake 8 - 10 minutes or until edges start to brown.
- Remove from oven, let set on baking sheet 1 minute before transferring to a cooling rack.
That cookies looks Delicious! thanks for sharing the recipe. Should try it!
Our dough came out super crumbly! So we added a bit of heavy cream to hold them together and that worked much better. They definitely didn’t turn out like the picture. Hehe oh well, they taste good still!
I’m sorry to hear that you had issues with the dough. Glad to hear that at least they still tasted good.
