What kind of Halloween candy is your favorite? Your answer might be none now that it is two-days-post-haul and your belly might not want to see another piece of chocolate or colored sugar for the remainder of your days. Or, you might just now be sneaking some of your kids' stash, or happily taking home some of that half-price stuff from your local supermarket.
For many years now, I've been thrilled to find that bright yellow and blue wrapper of a Butterfinger tucked into my trick-or-treating sack, or now, in my kids' bags.
It isn't surprising, then, that my eyes lit up when I saw the Butterfinger Snackerz booth at BlogHer. At first I figured the Snackerz were just a mini Butterfinger, but when I tried a sample, I learned that although the buttery-goodness is still there, the texture and taste is slightly different. The texture still has that satisfying crisp, but also includes more of a melt. And then the taste is a bit "lighter" with more of the chocolate shining through than in the original.
I still love my Butterfinger, but I think my preference is leaning towards the Butterfinger Snackerz version because it is a nice balance of crisp, smooth, chocolate, and buttery. One snack-pack of the Snackerz satisfies that urge for "something yummy" without later regrets.
Lucky you, I'm giving away the opportunity to do your own taste test. I'll provide one (1) lucky winner with both original Butterfinger and Butterfinger Snackerz to sample, compare, and enjoy.

It is a toss-up between M&Ms and Snickers, but I really like Butterfinger, too!

I love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups best. I did hit the 1/2 price chocolate sales on Nov. 1st. Having chocolate candy around is very tempting for me so I have to be judicious!

My favorite candy is 100 Grand. Of course, I've loved it since it was called the 100,000 Dollar Bar!
