Butterfinger Cookie Bars
Theoretically, we’re halfway through the summer after July 4th. But since the school year here didn’t end until June 20th, we’re not at the halfway mark yet. Nope, no siree! It’s in the 90s, my schedule is more flexible, and I’m getting in lots of quality family time!
There’s something really satisfying about hanging out with everyone when the weather is hot. We can log in lazy pool days, enjoy evenings in the cul de sac after dinner blowing bubbles with all the extra sunlight, and stop looking at the clock so much. We can also pause for afternoon ice cream snacks, and let’s face it. Those are the best. Right now my freezer is fully stocked with EDY’S® Butterfinger Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream and EDY’S® Baby Ruth Ice Cream, and they’re getting a lot of attention. How could they not, when they’re inspired by two of my favorite candy bars?
Since you all know I’m the biggest bargirl ever when it comes to baking, I made a batch of Butterfinger® cookie bars to go along with my ice cream. There’s pretty much no greater combination in life than a good dessert bar and a bowl of ice cream.
I am all over cookies ‘n cream flavors too, Mir! Ice cream, cakes, cookies, you name it! And these bars definitely hit the jackpot! I love that you made a cookies ‘n cream version! it looks delicious! Pinned!

I could not agree more, Medha!
Yet another recipe I’m going to try…thanks, Mir!
I know you love cookies and cream, Chris! And you could use Golden Oreos for John, since I know he likes those!
I prefer my high via sugar too :). My husband is obsessed with white chocolate oreos, I can’t lie though they’re insanely delicious. I bet these would go over well in our house. Pinning these, wonderful recipe!

Then I guess you know what to bake him next! 🙂 Thanks for the pin, Danielle!
Yes, Oreo’s are dangerously addictive! When I was younger, I once made my friend hide her oreos from me in her own house. And then I got mad when she wouldn’t tell me where they were! Scary times.

Ha! Boy, do I know what you mean! I get mad if I ask people to take food somewhere else and then they won’t let me at it. Not fair! 🙂
These look delicious! I love the cookies and cream combo. I can’t wait to give these a try 🙂

Oh Oreos, why are you so darn amazing? Why can I not pass you by??
Oh wait, that’s natural! Thank you Mir, for justifying my inability to turn down cookies and cream anything 🙂 Love these bars, especially the white chocolate!

Thanks, Trish! I love white chocolate when it’s with Oreos. Such yumminess!
WOWZA! These bars looks so chewy, goey and delicious! Yes, I do think that Oreos go perfectly with white chocolate. Genius idea to make bars with the two!

Thanks so much! I don’t think about white chocolate enough. It’s great when I remember to use it!
There will always be room in my life for Oreos. Especially brownies or bars with Oreos baked inside them. YUM
