I usually make peanut butter cookies at Christmas time for my husband every year. I also make my Corn Pop’s butterfinger pie that my husband has come to love. So butterfinger cookies was a must try! 

Ingredients:

• 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, at room temp 
• 3/4 light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup sugar 
• 3.4oz package sugar free vanilla pudding powder 
• 2 eggs
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract 
• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda 
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 10 oz butterfinger baking bits 

Instructions: 

Preheat oven to 325° (or 350°, I have to lower the temp on our oven)

Cream butter and sugar together until smooth

Add pudding mix, eggs, additional egg yolk, & vanilla

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, & salt 

Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients about a 1/2 cup at a time until combined 

Fold in butterfinger baking bits

Use a cookie scoop onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet 

Bake for 13-15 minutes (mine took 15 minutes)

Cool on pan for 2 minutes before moving to cooling rack 

Side notes:

Yields approximately 4 dozen, mine made 46 small cookies
