Love Butterfingers - these sound delicious!
Butterfingers are one of the few candy bars that I love. Gotta save this recipe.
they do sound good. I like PB and BF's too!
These sound dangerously delicious! I love peanut butter, and butterfingers are my favorite candy bar!
These look scrumptious!
All I can say is WOW! I love butterfingers! What a great idea!
I do love Butterfingers bars...I wonder how these would be with some ice cream between two of them...yum!
I don't even like sweets but these sound like crack to me! Butterfinger cookies? I can only imagine what Homer Simpson would say! Awesome!
Are these amazing cookies super sweet tasting?
I made these cookies tonight for a party at work tomorrow and they are amazing! Cruncy and chewy and delicious. They're sweet but not too sweet. I can see where they'd be good with ice cream. Unfortunately I don't think there's going to be any left after the folks at work taste them for the ice cream experiment. I'm already going to have to hide them from the Monkey tonight so the actually get to work.
These sound great. I just made a chocolate peanut butter cake this past week that I posted on my blog. If you love butterfingers you might want to try this recipe I believe it's dated august 3rd on my blog. The cake is one giant butterfingers.
I can't wait to try your cookies. Thanks for sharing them.
And these are healthy-er since there is only egg whites in the ingredients! ;)
I HAVE to make these!
great idea!! sweet!
Oh wow, these sound sooooo good!
Steph, I made these for a food blogger get together last weekend and they are ridiculously good. I think I shoved as much cookie dough in my mouth as I got on the sheet pans.
Steph--I made these yesterday and shared them at a family get-together. They are one of my very favorite cookies now. I LOVE them. I'll be posting a blog (with a link to you) about them later tonight.
SO good! Thanks for sharing.
Katie-Bar-The-Door and I have made these cookies several times and they are addictive. Just spectacular.
By the way, do not accidentally substitute low-fat peanut butter for regular. They sit next to each other the shelf and Katie picked up the wrong jar by mistake. Low-fat p.b. has more sugar and less fat, so the chemical reaction in the oven is entirely different. They didn't make cookies, they made a thin, rubbery peanut brittle concoction. Still, the in-laws were present and they got eaten in a single evening.
The cookies, that is, not the in-laws ...
These sound yummy. I think I'm gona make sum
I made these in a brownie pan tonight. Delicious!
