Recipes: Homemade Butterfinger Ice Cream and Butterfinger Blondies

Our ice cream freezer died! We had hoped to replace it this week, but we didn't have any luck! I hate we didn't get to make this ice cream recipe that Holly F. shared with us! I know it is delicious!! Thank you, Holly, for sharing all these wonderful homemade ice cream recipes! They've made great Desserts of the Week for July!!

I had bought my Butterfingers in anticipation of making the ice cream. So, I decided to use them for Butterfinger Blondies instead! We really like these!!

Here are the recipes for the ice cream and the cookie bars:

Homemade Butterfinger Ice Cream

2 1/2 cups sugar
 6 eggs
1 can Eagle Brand Milk
1 can pet milk
3 T. vanilla
4 butterfingers crushed
Whole Milk to fill freezer

Cook first 5 ingredients. Add butterfingers. Pour mixture into ice cream freezer and add whole milk to fill line. Freeze according to freezer directions.



Butterfinger Blondies

Note: Be sure to check for the best price on the Butterfingers. Those bars at the check-out counter aren't usually the best deal. At Piggly Wiggly, the large bars were $0.75 each, but they had the Fun-size packages on sale for $0.99 each. So, two packages of these were only $2.00 - verses $3.00 for the large bars. Plus, the two Fun-size packages had more ounces of candy than the four large bars!

Butterfinger Blondies

2¼ cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup butter, softened
2¼ cups brown sugar
3 large eggs
1½ tsp vanilla extract
4 regular-sized Butterfinger candy bars, crushed

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13×9-inch baking pan with cooking spray.

In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.

Combine butter and sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed.

Beat in eggs until smooth; add vanilla and mix well.

Slowly add flour mixture a bit at a time.

By hand, stir in one cup of the crushed Butterfingers.

Spread mixture into the prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining crushed Butterfingers over the top of the batter.

Bake for 30- 35 minutes, or until the bars are golden brown and a bit firm to the touch.

Cool completely; cut into bars.

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...
