Butterfinger Peanut Butter Cookies are amazingly soft and chewy and full of crunchy peanut butter and chunks of Butterfinger candy bars!
Butterfinger Peanut Butter Cookies take your basic peanut butter cookie to a whole new level! I got this recipe from a friend a long time ago and kept putting it off because I’m not a huge Butterfinger fan. My kids kept asking when I was going to finally try these so I caved and I was amazed at how delicious these cookies are!
The Butterfinger candy bits go so well in the peanut butter cookie – even for those of us who don’t typically love this type of candy bar! The recipe calls for crunchy peanut butter which is also incredible – I love the crunch of the nuts and the candy bar bits contrasted with the softness of the cookie. Soft and chewy cookies are my favorite and these have the perfect texture and consistency!

C is our 4th kid but our only boy. When my husband found out that we were finally having a boy he began planning all of the fun “boy” things they would be able to do together. They’ve been to the driving range a few times, but this was the first “real” golf game for these two – they had a great time!
