I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I keep making cookies this week. This one in particular is deadly according to my husband. Once you have one, there’s no stopping at that point! The Butterfinger chunks give the entire cookie a sweet peanutty flavor and the Milky Way makes them nice and chewy. I had a bunch of candy left over from Easter and am sooo glad I did. Talk about a good cookie! Enjoy everyone!
2 sticks softened butter
3/4 Cup brown sugar
3/4 Cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 Cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 mini butterfinger (fun size) or 1 1/2 full size candy bars
6 mini milky ways quartered or 1 full size candy bar
1/2 Cup chocolate chips
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a stand or electric mixer, beat butter and sugars until well combined. Slowly add in eggs and vanilla until well mixed.
2. Place flour, baking soda and salt into a large bowl; mix to combine. Slowly add to wet ingredients along with the candy bars and chocolate chips until just combined. With a medium cookie scoop, scoop dough onto a silpat lined baking sheet about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until done to your liking. I take them out right at 9 minutes for a softer cookie. Let cool for 5-7 minutes on baking sheet to set up. Transfer to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

My Little Cookie Monster
Did you try these in the muffin top pans? I wonder how they’d turn out?? I may try that…….if I do I’ll let you know.
I made these cookies this afternoon. They are awesome!!!! Next on the list, your peanut butter egg/cup cookies (sadly, the eggs are gone so I’ll have to substitute with the pb cups). Thanks for sharing your amazing recipes! I love your blog!
Naturally, what a excellent web site and informative posts, I’ll add backlink – bookmark this web site? Regards,Reader.
I have finally met my sole mate baker. I thought I was the only one who liked to make the ooey, gooey, super rich, over the top goodies, but apparently not. Love, love, love your ideas and have already tried a few. Keep up the good work!
I think I have gained 10 lbs just looking at all your recipes! LOL
these look amazing. i have to make cookies for my co-workers and one of them is allergic to nuts…how do u think these would taste without the butterfinger?
I can't say enough how impressed I was with these cookies! I made them for a Memorial Day bbq and was surprised at how quickly they disappeared. They are the perfect amount of sweet and chewy, and look great. I've made them 3 times now, and they have turned out consistently delicous. I loved even the base recipe and would love to try other treats baked into it.
I finally made these Saturday and they were fabulous. The first batch out of the oven were gone within 5 minutes after I put them on the cooling racks. They were PERFECT. Thanks for the recipe.
oh wow! Butterfingers are only like my favourite candy, why hadn’t I thought of putting them into a cookie? I guess that’s why the food blogging world is amazing, so I can find enlightenment in blogs like yours 🙂
The cookies and your cookie monster are just wonderful!
Your cookies always sound soooo delectable! And your son is just too cute 🙂
I will be trying these!
Awesome! I can tell how deadly delicious it is just by looking at your cute cookie monster =)
My oldest son (age 14) has a wicked sweet tooth. I’m sure he’d love to spend a week at your house! Delish…
YUM! As a mom of 4 cookie monsters – I gotta make this one! Thanks for the nummy recipe!

By the way, I watched you make your southwestern mac and cheese last night…it looked so fantastic! And you were great, you looked so relaxed and at home!
GREAT additions! Yum.
Oh do those cookies look good!!!
Oh no! My kids spotted these and now they are demanding that I make them! What have you done!

Jenny–why did you post these!!! Now I have to make them with the left over Easter chocolates we still have! How do I not eat all of them!!

Ms. Jenny-did you peek in my freezer and see those Butterfingers and Milky Way? 🙂
Seriously-these look SO yummy…how can I resist making them? Oh my…I’d better have a place to take them or it’s all over but the scale exploding!
Oh my! Those look very dangerous, I’m usually a one cookie kind of gal but I think I’d get addicted to those.
Oh man, those look awesome! I love cookies with candy in them, you just can’t beat that.
These cookies look amazing! I wish I had leftover candy, but these give me a good excuse to go and buy some!
Yum! These look delicious! I wish you were my neighbor, cause you could bring me cookies anytime. 🙂
These look wonderful! I need to make these soon.
We’re either going to make great chefs out of our sons, or they’re going to be 300 pounds! Good thing the little guys are active 🙂
These sound wonderful, of course, to me. LOVE candy bar desserts.
