Do you ever have mad-crazy cravings? Recently, I was thinking about making some chocolate and Butterfinger cookies and these tasty little gems were born! Thank goodness I have help eating these – otherwise, I could have eaten the whole batch by myself! Delicious … soft and chocolate-y, with just a bit of Butterfinger! 🙂 These just may be my new favorite cookie!

Ingredients
- ¾ cup butter, softened
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

- 10 fun-sized Butterfinger candy bars, chopped
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar with an electric mixer until thoroughly combined. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix well.
- In a separate medium bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, salt and instant pudding. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture, mixing well. Stir in the chocolate chips and butterfingers. Cover the bowl with saran wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.

I don't like Butterfinger, but my husband and son both love it. Hmmm…maybe that's the way to go. Make treats that they will eat but I won't be tempted to? Anyway, I know they will both eat this up! Thank you for sharing with See Ya in the Gumbo.

Just wanted you to know that your recipe is being included in a chocolate roundup. I will be pinning and tweeting it this week too. Happy Valentine's Day.
I've got a box of chocolate pudding, and I clicked on this from the Farm Girl Friday Hop just in case I could use that box in cookies. Score!
Thanks!
