2¼ cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup butter, softened
2 cups brown sugar (I slightly decreased this from the original)
3 large eggs
1½ tsp vanilla extract
about 10 fun sized Butterfinger bars, crushed
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 13x9-inch baking pan. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt; set aside. In a medium bowl, with electric mixer at medium speed, combine butter and brown sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla until smooth. Stir in flour mixture and 1 cup of crushed butterfingers.
Spread in prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining crushed butterfinger bars over top of batter.
Bake 30- 35 minutes, or until the bars are a bit firm to the touch. Cool completely before cutting into bars OR use a plastic knife or lettuce knife to enjoy fresh from the over brownies without tearing the bars...it really does work...see!?
Oh I used to love butterfingers! These look good....and cutting with a plastic knife, what a fun tip. I wouldn't have thought of that.
ReplyDeleteCandy in baking can work so well. I used to make skor shortbread squares that were a big hit.
ReplyDeleteRotated photos or not, those look lovely. I really hope that you enjoy Wicked. It's so so good!
ReplyDeleteYAY! So glad you liked these. We pretty much scarfed them down quickly around our house :)
ReplyDeleteYum, I do love me some candy in, well anything, but especially baked goods.
ReplyDeleteIf I made those I'd be telling everyone to take their fingers off my butterfingers! HEHEHE...
ReplyDeleteThey look yummy. Btw, I thought you rotated the photos for artistic value!!!
Those photos are making me hungry!
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a great fourth and were able to enjoy some down time.
Oh yum! Peanut butter is my enemy, and so are brownies. I can't say no! But to this I just have to say YESS!
ReplyDeleteOh, those sound really good!
ReplyDeleteGail - They're the best and, surprisingly, the plastic knife thing really does work.
ReplyDeleteDana - I agree. I love using skor...one of my favorites, except that its name makes me think of chewing tobacco...ick!
Joy - Thanks! Im SO looking forward to it!
RecipeGirl - Thanks for the recipe. My mom really liked them. She took half of one and then pretty soon went back for the other half!
Peabody - It does work well doesn't it!?
Annie - Sounds like a good idea!
Kristen - I think I've had too much down time! I'm literally doing nothing...and have a whole month off in August!
