Using
electric mixer, beat butter and both sugars in
large bowl until well-blended. Add egg and
vanilla and beat until fluffy. Beat in flour,
salt and baking soda. Stir in butterfingers
(dough will be moist). Chill cookie dough at
least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour. |

Preheat oven
to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment
paper. Using 1 rounded Tablespoon of dough for
each cookie (I use a small cookie scooper), drop
cookie dough in mounds onto prepared baking
sheets, spacing 3 inches apart (about 8 cookies
per sheet; cookies will spread). Bake cookies
until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer
parchment with cookies to rack and cool
completely. (Can be prepared 4 days ahead. Store
in airtight container.) |

***Hey,
This One's a Keeper!- would
make it again. "The buttery part of the candy bar melted
into the cookie and the chocolate too. Yummy!"
-San Diego, CA
**Liked it, but
didn't love it!- would
not make it again. "I
probably would not make these cookies baked up flat and crispy, and I
happen to prefer a chewier cookie. My other complaint about the recipe,
although EXTREMELY tasty, is that the butterfinger flavor did not really
come through at all. My husband, who loathes butterfingers, ate almost
the entire batch & obviously did not detect the butterfinger flavor."
-Austin, TX
****Restaurant
Quality!- would make it
again. "Fabulous! My
children and grandchildren and friends loved the cookies, and I have
repeated requests to bake them. Better than any restaurant cookie
I have eaten!"
***Hey, This One's a Keeper!- would make it
again. "This cookie is
GREAT! My mom made them for my son. No joking, he had to hide them so
his sisters (and myself) wouldn't eat them all......but we found them!
ha ha We LOVE them!"
-Julie in MS
