Butterfinger Brownies are the most addictive brownies ever. Filled with two different chocolates and, of course, crushed butterfingers, just like these Reese’s Pieces + Butterfinger Cookies!
Butterfinger Brownies | So Addictive!
Anyways, these Butterfinger brownies are a *little* ridiculous and super fudgy and divine. Lots of goodies tucked into this small 9×9 pan {like Butterfinger bits and chocolate chips!} but equally delicious plain and on their own.
Main Ingredients Needed
I loosely based this Butterfinger brownie recipe on Ina Garten’s Outrageous Brownies. But you could also just use my homemade brownie recipe and mix in Butterfinger pieces and mini chocolate chips! Here’s what you’ll need:
- Butter + Chocolate Chips + Unsweetened Baking Chocolate – this starts the base out, super chocolatey and moist!
- Eggs – this is used for structure and texture.
- Vanilla – for flavor.
- Sugar – to sweeten.
- Flour – to fill out the rest of the brownies.
- Baking Powder – this gives these brownies some lift.
- Salt – to balance the sweetness.
- Butterfinger Pieces + Mini Chocolate Chips – these are mixed into the batter! So good!

How to Make Butterfinger Brownies
For full details on how to make Butterfinger Brownies, see the recipe card down below 🙂
Prep
Preheat oven. Line a 9×9 square glass baking dish with parchment paper and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
Make Batter
In a double boiler, melt butter, chocolate chips, and unsweetened baking chocolate. Stir occasionally until completely smooth and melted. Remove from heat and cool for a couple of minutes.
In a large bowl, stir eggs, vanilla, and sugar {do not beat}. Pour in warm chocolate-butter mixture and stir. Set aside to cool to room temperature. Stir in flour, baking powder & salt until combined.
In a separate bowl, stir Butterfinger bits with mini chocolate chips and some flour. Pour into batter and stir.
Bake + Cool
Pour batter into prepared pan. Rap pan against the oven shelf to force the air to escape from between the pan and the brownie batter. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean. Do not overbake!
Allow to cool thoroughly, refrigerate, and cut into squares.

I ended up giving most of these away because I could only handle eating half of one brownie {I’m such a lightweight!!} because they’re so sweet and rich. But don’t let that scare or stop you from making these again and again. Or, just double the recipe, folks. Brownies for DAYYYYSSSS.

I just bought some butterfinger bits! Perfect timing. One question, you wrote the recipe was based on one by Ina (love her), and frosting by you….is the supposed to be frosting on these? I don’t see a recipe for frosting. I can’t wait to try these!
Plenty of Mr Baby’s pic will be excellent 😀 Can’t wait
