Description

This is my family's favorite cookie recipe. The combination of chopped up Butterfingers and chunky peanut butter is soooooo good!

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 egg whites
1 1/4 cups crunchy peanut butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 (2 1/10 ounce) bars chocolate-covered crispy peanut butter candy

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets.
2 Cream the butter and the brown and white sugars together until light and fluffy. Add the egg whites and beat well. Beat in the peanut butter and the vanilla.
3 Combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in the chopped candy bars. Shape dough into 1 1/2 inch balls and place on the prepared baking sheets.
4 Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Let cookies cool on wire racks.
