Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups chopped Butterfinger bars (about 6 bars)
1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chopped Butterfinger bars and drizzle in caramel sauce for that delightful swirl.
Scoop generous amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 10–12 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.
Allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to wire racks.
