Butterfinger Blondies

A friend & coworker asked me to bake something for her Chorus's bake sale. (they are raising $ for a trip to Hawaii where the will be competing nationally) Of course I jumped at the excuse to try out a new recipe! (how could I say no.. )

So as I was in search of something "evil" to bake I stumbled upon "Recipe Girls" Butterfinger Blondies. The were incredibly easy to make, and VERY Decadent! They got rave reviews in my office, and to be honest.. I was so happy to have them out of my hands for fear of eating too many!
