Butterfinger & Milky Way Chocolate Chunk Cookies

I don't think I could love any candy bar more than I love Milky Way's. They've always been my favorite, ever since I was a kid. I don't know if its the milky chocolate or the gooey caramel but I just can't get enough of them! My ultimate weakness. So when I came across this recipe that incorporates Milky Ways into a cookie, I was immediately sold! Especially when you add Butterfingers to the mix. The texture was so perfect, gooey and melty because of the Milky Ways but the Butterfingers added that little necessary crunch. So yummy! These little bad boys were immediately inhaled by my boyfriend and father. I would say thats definitely a winner!

Reese's Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

I present to you the most ridiculous and delicious cookie I have ever tasted in my nearly 22 years of living. A Reeses' peanut butter cup stuffed chocolate chip cookie. If you haven't heard of Jenny yet over at Picky Palate then please, please, please click this link to find out all about her amazingness. She is an idol in the cookie world.



Jenny invented the original stuffed cookie with her beyond amazing Oreo-stuffed cookies and she has made so many more incredible versions! And I fully intend on trying each and every one of them. I decided to do her candy-stuffed ones first because my boyfriend is a huge Reese's fan so I knew I could pawn these off on him after I had a few. I would hate to have all 2 dozen of these around the house because I know I would inhale each and every last one of them!



Jenny did a variety of candy when she was stuffing cookies but I only had Reese's in my cupboard so thats what I stuck with but I think a Milky Way stuffed cookie (my ultimate weakness when it comes to candy) would be epic! I definitely want to try this one with different candy types.



I hope you have a tall glass of milk handy and enjoy these oh so naughty cookies!
