- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 280 g plain flour
- 1 tsp baking soda

- 100 g caramel bits or soft caramel pieces
- 100 g milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips

- 50 g caramel sauce
- 50 g melted chocolate
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175°C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
- Cream the butter and sugars.
- Beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 2–3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla.
- Combine the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Make the dough.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Mix just until no dry flour remains.
- Add the crunchy fillings.
- Fold in the chopped Butterfinger, caramel pieces, and chocolate chips. Reserve a little of each for topping.
- Shape the cookies.
- Scoop approximately 40 g of dough per cookie and place on the prepared trays, leaving about 5 cm between each cookie.
- Add toppings.
- Press a few extra Butterfinger and chocolate pieces onto the tops.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centres still look slightly soft.
- Cool.
- Leave the cookies on the baking tray for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Finish.
- Drizzle with caramel sauce and melted chocolate if desired, then sprinkle with a few extra Butterfinger crumbs.
Notes
- Ensure the butter is softened for easier mixing.
- Do not overbake; the cookies will continue to cook on the tray after being removed from the oven.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
