Curious: I have a peanut allergy. Is there another candy bar you could substitute for the butterfinger?

Tricia- I haven’t tried anything else in this one, but I’m a big fan of experimenting with different candy bars in desserts. Let me know if you try another & if it works out!

Here’s a good one. Put have of a box of brownie mix (prepared) into an 8X8 pan. Lay lg symphony candy bars to cover, top with remaining batter and bake.
Gooey Good!

very disappointing!

I made these and it came out more like a cake. Any ideas of what I may have done wrong?
Lori Lange replied: — September 9th, 2011 @ 8:51 PM
Usually more like cake means too many eggs. Not sure… they should be more dense than cakey.

That’s exactly it! I guess I saw 4 Butterfingers and put in 4 eggs too. I specifically remember putting in 4 eggs. Thanks for the reply!

I want to try this recipe, it sounds yumm! With 2 and 1\4 sugar and the butterfingers choc bar did it come out too sweet?
Lori Lange replied: — November 10th, 2011 @ 7:36 AM
We loved it! Not too sweet for us!

We liked it as is!

I added 1 cup of chocolate chips to mine just to get a bit more of the chocolate kick and it worked out well.
Also another trick I’ve used (and seen around the web) is to line your baking pan with non-stick foil for easy removal (and it works!), if you don’t have non-stick foil handy I’ve also found that cooking spray with a generous amount of flour sprinkled over the top of it works as well.

I tried these and they were delicious! I brought them to work and they were a hit. I mention them in my blog and added a link to this page. Hope you don’t mind!
