  • Fold in the candy pieces until evenly incorporated.

  • Using a medium (1 1/2 tbsp) cookie scoop, scoop the dough out and roll between clean hands to form a golf sized ball. Arrange 12 balls evenly spaced out on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350° for 8-12 minutes, just until the edges are set- you don't want to over bake these cookies.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cook for 5-10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Serve & enjoy!

Notes

  • The cookie dough will seem very crumbly when first mixed together, and that's OK. Do NOT add extra liquid to it.
  • When you chop the Butterfingers, you want to chop them fairly finely so it's easy to incorporate them into the dough.
  • Bake these only until the edges of the cookies set. You don't want to overbake these.
