BUTTERFINGER SHORTBREAD COOKIES

These big, buttery, crunchy things are one of my favorites!


1 cup butter, soft 1 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour 1 - 2 oz. bar Butterfingercandy bar, crushed fine
2/3 cup powdered sugar   Chocolate, melted
1/4 tsp. salt

Preheat to 325F. In mixing bowl cream butter until light. Sift three dry ingredients together and add to butter, adding candy. Divide dough into 8 pieces. Pat each into a 3 1/2” tart pan with removable bottom. (Use the size you have or roll out 1/4” thick and cut with cookie cutters. Bake on ungreased baking sheet.) Using a fork, prick bottoms of tart pans and place on baking sheet. Bake for 18 - 20 minutes or lightly browned. Cool completely in pans, then remove. Makes 8 large cookies. Dip edges in melted chocolate.
