Next, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips as the next layer, followed by the chopped Butterfinger candy bars on top.
Seal the jar with a tight lid. If gifting, attach a tag with these baking instructions: 'Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan. Empty the jar contents into a large mixing bowl. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, and 2 large eggs. Mix until just combined. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Cool before slicing.'
If baking immediately, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the jar contents with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, and 2 large eggs. Stir until just incorporated.

Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
