Chewy Butterfinger Cookies

"A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand" unknown

who doesn't love cookies?  How about cookies and candy?  How about a candy cookie that is super easy to make?  

I found this recipe on Pinterest and had to give it a try.  These chewy butterfinger cookies are simple, using a basic drop cookie recipe and adding chopped butterfingers.  The candy melts in the cookies and is so good right out of the oven

Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in bow and set aside.

Cream together butter and sugar.  Then mix in the egg.  

Stir in the butterfinger pieces in by hand.  

Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes.

Enjoy with a glass of milk.  YUM YUM!!!
