Butterfinger Brownies

Last week I neglected to welcome my new followers and to thank you all for taking time to read my blog.  I am sorry and want to say that to you today.  I am so honored that anyone is willing to take time out of their busy schedule to stop here.  Have a great week.

Recently I wanted to make cookies.  (Who am I kidding, I always want to make cookies.)  I looked through the recipes I had saved on my computer and found this one.   I had Butterfinger candy bars on hand so thought these sounded really good, and they were.  I also liked that the fat used was melted.  The original recipe called for margarine, but I used butter.  I unfortunately do not know the source of the recipe.

I like nuts in my cookies and did miss them a little so may add some next time I make these.

Butterfinger Brownies
2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
3/4 c. butter, melted
2 1/4 c. brown sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 t. vanilla
3 regular size Butterfinger Candy Bars, crushed

Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl and set aside.  Mix together melted butter and brown sugar and beat well.  Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth.  Stir in flour mixture.  Add two crushed Butterfingers and mix well.  Pour mixture into  a greased 9x13-inch baking pan.  Crush and sprinkle remaining Butterfinger over top of batter.  Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes.  Cook and cut into bars.  Makes 3 dozen.

These are like a blondie with little bits of chocolate spread throughout.
