Ingredients

Units Scale

For the cookies:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped Butterfinger candy bars

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  4. Add Butterfinger: Fold in the chopped Butterfinger pieces.
  5. Bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 9–11 minutes until edges are set and centers are slightly soft.
  6. Cool: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra chewiness, slightly underbake the cookies.
  • These freeze well and are perfect for make-ahead treats.
  • For a crunchier version, let them bake an additional 1–2 minutes.
