I have this little obsession with keeping my pantry organized and when it isn’t I get into a bit of a frenzy when I can’t find the item I am looking for.  Now, I am not by any means this organized in other areas.  I wish I had a bigger pantry, one that had all of the little extra features and such but I make do. Since I have started blogging, my pantry has been overflowing with food items and these Butterfinger Baking Bits were hidden under a bag of brown sugar; clearly not where they belong.  I remembered buying them at the holidays with every intention of putting them into a yummy cookie.

Checking the expiration date was good, I knew I was going to use them right away.  I could already taste the delicious and chewy cookie the Butterfinger Candy bits were going to be a part of.   This cookie recipe is super simple and the cookie dough balls can even be frozen for up to three months – and – you don’t have to thaw them! Just give them another minute to bake in the oven.  How perfect is that for when you must have a cookie or two!

  • Add in egg and mix until just combined.
  • Gradually, add in the flour mixture and beat until combined.

    There is something not right with this recipe. The ‘’dough” is crumbly. I ended up squishing it together to make balls. They did not flatten and were very hard. Pretty tasteless actually, and I even added a tsp of vanilla. I will try a different recipe next time. Very disappointed.

      I’m sorry you had trouble with the recipe. Perhaps try a 1/4 cup less flour and see how the dough is then. Also, was your butter softened to room temperature? Sometimes cold butter will make the dough crumbly. I’ve made them several times with no problems. I do mention in the directions that the dough will be thick, but I’ve never had it crumbly and the cookies have always flatten out while baking.
