This recipe was given to me by a friend for a cookie exchange I hosted a couple years ago. Since then it has become a year round favorite that I can only make them on occasion as they seem to quickly disappear… and as you can see from the ingredients it is possible to add on a few pounds along with the yumminess.
Ingredients:1 Cup of Butter, Soften
1 Cup of White Sugar
1 Cup of Brown Sugar. Packed
2 Eggs
1 Egg Yolk
2 Teaspoons of Vanilla Extract
8 ounces of Creamy Peanut Butter
2 Cups of All Purpose Flour
1 Teaspoon of Baking Soda
1/2 Teaspoon of Salt
48 Mini Snicker Bars
Preheat oven to 350ºF {the cookie dough does need to chill for at least 2 hours first though}
Cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth.
Add in eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix until fluffy. Stir in peanut butter.
I love this little measuring gadget for ingredients like peanut butter, it makes it so easy and less of a mess; You scoop the ingredients in to measure and push it out to dispense – nothing gets left behind. I bought this forever ago from Pampered Chef , I believe, but they have since changed the design. Amazon still carries this brand though here.
In a separate bowl sift together the flour, baking soda and salt and gradually add into the peanut butter mixture.
Refrigerate the dough for at least two hours.
Scoop out a spoonful of dough, press it flat and place a mini snickers in the center.
Roll into a ball shape and place on a lightly greased cookie pan.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned.
oh my! What a fab recipe. I am extremely out of control around good cookies.
oh dear. I kinda wish I’d never seen these little babies.
Yummy!!! I am so making these tomorrow! Thanks so much for sharing!
Oh my goodness, Stephanie, those look amazing! I must try these! I think they will be a big hit!
I make those every Christmas. My family loves them!
Wow…I can’t wait to make these cookies. I’d rather have cookies than any other dessert…which is why I SHOULDN’T try these!
Are you kidding me??? I would eat these all if I made them…but that won’t stop me from trying them out! Can’t wait! They look so yummy!
Oh my gosh. Seriously those are so amazing looking. There is no way I could make them and not eat them up before sharing. Thanks for posting this!
Oh My!!! No words can express how I feel about that cookie! :O) This is fat free – right? :o) Thanks for sharing this – I will definitely need to make this one with my girls.

One word: drooling.

This cookie recipe sounds awesome, thanks for sharing! I also love your measuring cup gadget, will definitely get myself one of those.
for a quick and easy alternative…Buy one of the Chocolate Chip rolls of cookie dough at your supermarket. Cut in 1/4″ slices. Wrap a slice around a Snicker’s mini. Bake as directed on the cookie dough roll. YUM!
MMMMMmmmmm these look Delish, Thanks for sharing !! My gang is not fond of nuts I wonder if the mini milky way bars would work. I’m drooling just thinking about them. 🙂 Connie xox
