Butterfinger Cookies

I have been reading a fun series of Culinary Murder Mysteries, this one was entitled Key Lime Pie, and with each book comes a slew of new recipes. I tried this one and loved it, so here you go. If you are interested in the books...or recipes go to josiskilpack.com or you can buy her books at Deseret Book.~BJ

Butterfinger Cookies

½ cup butter

2/3 cup sugar

¾ cup brown sugar

1 egg

1 ¼ cup peanut butter

1 ½ tsp. Vanilla

1 cup flour

½ tsp baking soda

¼ tsp. Salt

5 Butterfinger candy bars, chopped (about 2 cups)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and sugars. Add egg, mix. Add PB and vanilla, mix until smooth. Add four, baking soda and salt. Mix well. Add Butterfingers, mix. Roll into 1 inch balls, or use the 1 inch scoop. Drop by spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes.

Makes 4 dozen.

*Chop candy bars with a knife. You don't want the pieces too fine or you lose the crunch.
