How to Make the Best Butterfinger Cookies
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
-
Cream butter and sugars until well combined, stir in eggs and vanilla mixing until well combined. Stir in flour, pudding mix, salt, baking soda and Butterfingers. Stir until dough forms.
-
Using cookie scoop, place dough onto cookie sheet, 1 inch apart.
-
Bake for 12-14 minutes, until baked through. Remove and let cool completely. Dip half of each cookie into chocolate then sprinkle with crushed Butterfingers. Let chocolate set up and serve room temperature.
There’s something magical that happens when you bake Butterfingers in cookies, gets that peanut buttery gooey texture. So good!
Place cookie dough balls about 1-2 inches apart on the parchment lined baking sheet.
After your cookies have cooled, dip your cookies in some melted chocolate. Sprinkle with Butterfinger bits 🙂
How To Serve Cookies
Serve cookies on a serving plate, cooled and chocolate set. Room temperature is best. Serve at any occasion where desserts are needed.
Tips For Making The Best Cookies
- Don’t alter the recipe, use all ingredients as listed.
- For a more firm cookie, refrigerate your cookie dough for 24 hours before baking.
- Don’t skip creaming your butter and sugars for a good 2 minutes. Helps create a fluffy, chewy cookie.
- Don’t overtake your cookies. Cookies will continue to cook on hot cookie sheet when removed from oven.
- Let cookies cool completely before storing in containers. This will keep their crispness
- Store leftover cookies in an airtight container for 3 days room temperature.

My brother loves butterfingers and I he is having a hard time right now so I am looking for something to cheer him up. This chocolate dipped butter finger cookies recipe should do the trick. I’ll have to double it so I can have some too!
Followed the recipe exactly even let the dough chill in the fridge for 35 minutes. And they baked completely flat and super thin. Batter went in the garbage
She doesn’t seem to reply to comments. What kind of pudding did you use? I’ve been wanting to try this recipe but I wasn’t sure if it was instant or regular. Just a random comment about flat/greasy cookies, this has happened to me before when the batter got too warm so now I chill all my cookies before dropping them. Also, if a recipe doesn’t have enough flour they come out flat. Hope you can find a recipe that works for you and is yummy too! =)
do you use regular or instant pudding mix
Do you use regular or instant pudding mix?
