Notes
- If you don’t want to garnish your cookies with butterfinger you can always add all of it at the same time into your cookie dough.
- Cookies can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 week in an airtight container.
- Can use crunchy or smooth peanut butter for this recipe (I used the natural Member’s Mark peanut butter from Sam’s).
- I love that these cookies are chewy and crunchy at the same time - the pieces of butterfingers really adds burst of flavor in every bite!
