Hi y'all! I'm Jamie and I blog over at Love Bakes Good Cakes. The name is a little misleading - because it's not just about cakes! I love sharing family-friendly meals and my never-ending search for great recipes! A huge thanks to Angela for having me here today. :)

Do you ever have mad-crazy cravings? Recently, I was thinking about making some chocolate and Butterfinger cookies and these tasty little gems were born! Thank goodness I have help eating these - otherwise, I could have eaten the whole batch by myself! Delicious ... soft and chocolate-y, with just a bit of Butterfinger! :) These just may be my new favorite cookie!

In a medium bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar with an electric mixer until thoroughly combined. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix well.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, salt and instant pudding. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture, mixing well. Stir in the chocolate chips and butterfingers. Cover the bowl with saran wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
