    Excellent cookie! Butterfingers are my favorite candy and these were a hit! The recipe went together really easy, but I did make a few changes. I used creamy PB and only about 1/2 cup of it. This was because that was all I had but really wanted to try the recipe anyway. I think I will always make them like that as they were just peanut buttery enough and held together perfectly. Thanks for posting, Kim!

    I love Butterfinger so I was thrilled to find this recipe. I used my food processor to cut up the butterfinger, but I'm afraid that it might have been too much. The cookie tasted like peanutbutter, but it didn't have the yummy crunchiness of the Butterfinger. Next time I might also add chocolate chips. We have enjoyed the cookies. Thanks for the recipe Kim!
