Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups (163g) all-purpose flour (measured accurately)
- 1/2 cup (57g) natural unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup (168g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup (112g) packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (104g) sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped Snickers*
- 1/3 cup (56g) chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup (56g) peanut butter chips
- 1/3 cup caramel bits or chopped caramels
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
- Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium sized bowl and set aside.
- Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Don’t over mix.
- Stir in the Snickers, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and caramel bits.
- Roll into balls of cookie dough about 2 tablespoons in size.
- Place the cookie dough balls on the lined cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes. The center might look a little undercooked, but the edges should be done. The centers will cook a little more and firm up as the cookies cool.
- Remove cookies from oven and allow to cool for 5-7 minutes, the remove to cooling rack to cool completely.
- Serve. Store leftover cookies in an air-tight container. Best if eaten within 3-4 days.
Notes
- Snickers – You’ll need about 9 mini bars or 1-2 full sized bars. Chop them small.
- Caramel – You can use caramel bits or soft and chewy caramels and chop them up. I tried Nestle caramel “chips”, but they taste really similar to the butterscotch chips, which are pretty strong, and overpower the other flavors in the cookies. Stick with real caramel.
