Ingredients

Scale

1 cup creamy or chunky peanut butter
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup Butterfinger bars, chopped

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla extract; blend well.
Gradually sift in the baking soda and flour, stirring until just combined to form a thick dough.
Fold in the chopped Butterfinger bars evenly throughout the dough.
Drop tablespoon-sized scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced two inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden around the edges but still soft in the center. Let cool slightly before transferring to wire racks.
