Butterfinger Cookie Dough Cheesecake Bars

By á-15311

You are wearing eating pants for these Butterfinger Bars, right? Like I mentioned in the previous post all prayers for mercy will go unanswered. So, before we get started, let’s agree will power is overrated and accept that your hips are going to be pissed. Done? Alright, let’s get obscene.

Going from the bottom up you’ll find a chocolate chip cookie dough crust that’s been layered with a heavy bricking of 5 king size packages of Butterfinger. To add some soft creaminess against the Butterfinger crunch and ease the sweetness is a layer of cheesecake. Finishing things off is a crumbled sprinkling of more cookie dough and a fistful mini chocolate chips.
