How to make it

  1. In a small saucepan, add butter and melt over medium heat.
  2. As soon as the butter is an amber brown color, remove from heat and cool in the refrigerator for 20-25 minutes or until it reaches room temperature.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and set aside.
  5. Pour butter into a large bowl and stir in both sugars and vanilla and thoroughly whisk until combined and continue to whip with your whisk for about 2 minutes.
  6. Next whisk in each egg one at a time.
  7. Next add the flour mixture in three increments and carefully fold into the batter using a spatula until flour is completely mixed in. Pour in the Butterfinger Baking Bits and mix into the batter.
  8. Scoop out balls that are 2 tablespoon sized and add to your lined baking sheet at least 1 inch apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  9. Remove from the oven and cool for 15 minutes then serve.
