Ingredients

For Cookies:

  • 2 sticks (226 grams) unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 cup (270 grams) creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup (198 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (213 grams) brown sugar packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 ½ cups (300 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 30 unwrapped bite-sized snickers

Instructions

For Cookies:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer cream the butter, peanut butter, and both sugars until creamy and smooth.
  • Add the vanilla and combine. Add eggs one at a time, mixing fully after each addition.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine.
  • Add dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix until just combined.
  • Chill dough for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees (F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
  • Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll around 1 bite-sized snickers bar.
  • Repeat with remaining dough and space about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes. Rotating the pan halfway through.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

Notes

  • Chill your cookie dough. I know skipping this step is tempting (you want your cookies as quickly as possible and I can’t blame you for that!) but don’t do it! Chilling cookie dough prevents the cookies from overspreading. This can cause them to be thinner, and crispier, and change the overall flavor of the end product.
  • Don’t use cold ingredients. Ensure that all of your cold ingredients are at room temperature before making your cookies. The ingredients will combine much easier.
