Butterfinger Brownies

This is a recipe that I recently found on therecipegirl.blogspot.com who got the recipe from Recipezaar. I thought, how can you loose when butterfingers are included? My family loves butterfingers, especially with ice cream. This recipe is exactly like it was described at therecipegirl, “So they’re not really technically a ‘brownie.’ They’re more like a Blondie with lots of Butterfinger chunks mixed in.” I do think I slightly over cooked these brownies. At 35 minutes the middle of the pan still looked too wet. I cooked it a little bit longer and the edges of the brownies were a little on the crunchy side, but still delicious. So, next time, I think I’ll stop right at the 35 minutes. I also used snack size butterfingers, because they were actually cheaper than the full size ones. So, for this recipe if you are using the snack size butterfingers you’ll need 12. If you love butterfingers, you’ll absolutely love these brownies.
