Cookies And Cookie Bars Never Last Long In Our Cookie Jar

I love making cookie bars in pretty much any and every flavor and these Bodacious Butterfinger Cookie Bars are a personal favorite. Chocolate and peanut butter is a classic flavor combination that never just never gets old.  These Butterfinger Bars are a super easy cookie bar to put together and they’re incredible warm or cold. The cookie dough batter is moist and chewy and the butterfinger nougat melts into the batter giving it a distinct flavor and texture.

Serve These Bodacious Butterfinger Bars For Any Occasion

Whether you’re baking for birthdays, the holidays or a potluck gathering they’re a sure fire hit. Alternatively, you can keep  them all to yourself and enjoy them warm with a glass of cold milk.  It doesn’t get much better than that. You may also like to try this Butterfinger Cake for your next potluck party or this insanely delicious and Butterfinger Fudge for your holiday goodies.

Cooling Time10 mins
Total Time45 mins
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: bodacious-butterfinger-bars, butterfinger-cookie-bars
Servings: 24 bars
Author: Melissa Sperka

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups crumbled Butterfingers divided [about 12 snack size or 4 full size]

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spritz a metal non stick 13 x 9- inch pan with baking spray. Set aside.
  • On the stove top, melt together the butter and brown sugar. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes until the sugar is dissolved, then remove to a mixing bowl to cool.
  • After 5-10 minutes, beat the eggs into the brown sugar-butter mixture, one at a time.
  • Add the vanilla. If the mixture is just warm to the touch, it's fine to add the eggs.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the wet ingredients.
  • Beat with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes until fully combined.
  • Mix in 1 cup of crushed Butterfingers by hand.
  • Pour into the prepared pan, and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of crushed Butterfingers on top.
  • Bake for 25 minutes. Test the center with a toothpick before removing from the oven. Look for moist crumbs, not a clean toothpick. Do not over bake.
  • Cool to room temperature in the pan on a wire rack before cutting.

    Butterfingers are my son’s favorite! Does this have to be baked in a metal pan? I only have a glass 13×9. Thx.

      Glass and metal bakes differently but, you can use glass. You may need to adjust the baking time so, keep an eye on them. I hope he loves them!
