Our neighborhood is headed out in the chilly air to sing Christmas Carols tonight! Our neighbors are hosting a caroling party, complete with ugly Christmas sweaters, bring-your-own treats, singing door-to-door and sipping festive beverages. There will be lots and lots of kids in the group, so I figured they might like some brownies… or chocolate cookies… or butterfingers. Oh what the heck? I put that stuff all together and created some Butterfinger Brownie Cookies!
They’re not really specifically a Christmas cookie or anything, but they sure are good.
Think you’ll be able to keep yourself from shoving the wooden spoon-full of chocolate into your mouth when no one else is in the room? It’s not easy. Swirl chopped Butterfinger into that thick and rich chocolate batter. Then try not to take big ‘ol licks after that! It’s not even possible.
Here are the gooey puddles of chocolate brownie batter with Butterfinger chunks.
When they’re baked, they puff, then flatten as they cool down. The consistency of the sturdiness of the cookie should be medium. If you over-bake them, they’ll be crunchy. Take them out while they’re still gooey and you’ll maintain a slightly softer texture. Expect a chewy cookie (remember… it’s plump full of Butterfinger toffee!) And expect them to remind you of brownies too. That’s a good thing, I think. Our little Christmas carolers gobbled all of these up. I’m not sure they’d last long in any Butterfinger- obsessed family!
