Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 1 whole Large egg
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Butterfinger candy bars, crushed

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed. Mix just until a cohesive dough forms, being careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the crushed Butterfinger candy bits until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounds of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid over-baking for a softer texture.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your crispy, buttery, and candy-filled Butter Finger Cookies!
