Butterfinger Oatmeal Cookies
adapted from Quaker oats vanishing oatmeal cookie recipe
makes 24
1/2 C butter, softened
1/2 C brown sugar
1/4 C sugar
1 eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 C flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 C quick oats
12 mini Butterfinger bars {or 2 regular size}, roughly chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar and sugar together. Beat in the egg and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and oats. Add the dry ingredients into the wet and mix just to combine.{Do not over mix.} Gently mix in the chopped Butterfingers. Drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet. {Good luck NOT eating the dough!}Bake for 11-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and after a minute, remove cookies and cool on a cooling rack.I just love the chunks of orange candy. Mmmmmm.For these cookies, I used mini Butterfingers, but the regular size would also work great.
