EASY BUTTER FINGERS CANDY



Easy Butter Fingers Candy image

Sometimes I am embarrassed to tell people how easy this delicious candy is to make. It tastes very much like a famous crunchy peanut candy bar, and can be made in about 10 minutes (total time)! I like to buy a lot candy corn right after Halloween when it is on sale so it can be a very inexpensive candy to make. Sometimes I drizzle some melted milk chocolate on top of the semisweet chocolate after it's cooled just for decoration.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your butter and flour will greatly impact the flavor of your buttery fingers. Opt for unsalted butter and all-purpose flour.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much. This will result in a more crisp and crumbly cookie.
  • Roll the dough thinly: The thinner you roll the dough, the crispier your buttery fingers will be. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown: The cookies should be golden brown on the edges and just slightly browned in the center. This will ensure that they are cooked through but still have a soft and chewy texture.
  • Let the cookies cool before serving: The cookies will continue to cook as they cool, so it's important to let them cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Buttery fingers are a classic cookie that is loved by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and toppings. Whether you prefer them plain or dressed up, buttery fingers are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
