Calories: 141kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup salted butter softened
- 1 whole large egg room temperature
- 1 large egg yolk room temperature
- 2 (1 cup) Butterfinger Candy Bars roughly chopped in ½ inch pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Using a stand or a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar for about 90 seconds.
- Add egg and egg yolk and beat for 1 minute.
- Mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix until flour is baking streaking through, being careful not to over mix.
- Mix in the chopped Butterfingers. Candy bar should be roughly chopped in about ¼" to ½" pieces. Smaller pieces are ok.
- Roll into 1 ½ inch balls with your hands and place on a large parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes, until the edges start to brown. Remove from oven.
- Let cool for 15 minutes on the cookie sheet, then remove and place on a rack to finish cooling.
Notes
- Be careful not to over mix the dough or the cookies will be less light and tender.
- Using parchment paper keeps any of the melted Butterfinger from sticking to your baking sheet. A silicone liner would also would great.
- You can use a cookie scoop if you want to cookies to come out the same size.
- Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before moving to the wire rack.
