Butterfinger Brownies

Butterfinger Brownies

 

Yes, of course I love butterfingers. Peanut butter is my all time favorite. I should really try my hand at making more brownies. I just can't help truly loving boxed mix brownies. They're gooey, chocolatey, and have awesome shiny crusted tops. Yummmm.

This months chocolate party theme was chocolate and candy. It seems this entire month so far all my posts have been candy and chocolate. It's the spirit of Halloween I think. I love everything about October. Fall starts to set in. We can play in the leaves and then rake them up and bag them for the village to pick up. Pumpkin picking. Halloweenie. ahhhh.. so much fun!

So, I guess I never had butterfingers around long enough to try to make anything with them. Once I started making these, it was a unique experience. I was kind of in shock of how sticky and gooey the butterfingers had become once I turned them into a powdery consistency and added some cream. There must be some honey in those puppies.

These were gone in a blink of an eye. The husband ate them down rather quicker than the usual sugary treat. He also loves butterfingers.
