Description

Loaded with chopped Snickers, chocolate, peanut butter, and caramel, these Snickers Cookies are soft, chewy, and absolutely irresistible. Quick and easy to prepare, they’re a great way to use up leftover candy!


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

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  2. Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium sized bowl and set aside.
  3. Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  5. Add the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Don’t over mix.
  6. Stir in the Snickers, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and caramel bits.
  7. Roll into balls of cookie dough about 2 tablespoons in size.
  8. 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.
  9. Remove cookies from oven and allow to cool for 5-7 minutes, the remove to cooling rack to cool completely.
  10. 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.
