Butterfinger Brownies

My Reese Peanut Butter Cup brownies went over well last week.  You guys loved them and well Mr. J ate them us so quickly our weekly dessert lasted about two days. 

It got me thinking about other candy/brownie combinations I could use to make a decadent dessert.  Butterfingers popped into my mind. I don't tend to eat candy bars and to tell you the truth Butterfinger would not be my first pick.  Funny though that when it comes to ice cream toppings Butterfingers are my favorite.  A Butterfinger Blizzard. Check.  Butterfingers on frozen yogurt. Yes, please.

When I think of Butterfingers I think of Bart Simpson. My brother was a huge fan of The Simpsons growing up. It was a nightly tradition.  The Halloween episode brought the whole family together. Do you remember the commercials with Bart Simpson?

"Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger."

Remember?

Yep, that is all I can think about. I think the same goes for these brownies. I made them Saturday afternoon and then had to leave last night for a work trip.  I am coming home later tonight. I am pretty sure that brownies might be gone when I come home.
