Snicker Surprise Peanut Butter Cookies

Recipe #15477 | 35 min | 20 min prep | add private note

I found this recipe next to a Snickers coupon. It is absolutely fabulous. The Snickers is hidden inside the cookie so it makes for a nice surprise when you bite in. This cookie works perfectly as part of a Xmas cookie platter. If you are a Snickers fan, you are in for a real treat.

I made these for the first time yesterday and they turned out awesome. They did need to bake about 25 minutes and they bottoms kind of fell out on some of them but other than that they were great. I used the mini snickers variety pack with regular, dark chocolate, and almond. My family really enjoyed them. Thanks angelcakes!

    Elmolvsu, I hope you try this recipe again. They went off the plate again. I drizzle chocolate on top then sprinkle powdered sugar. USE 1 CUP OF BUTTER instead of 1/2 cup. That will probably make the difference for your flour. I yield 41 cookies. I don't use a lot of dough around the snickers. I make a ball, flatten it on wax paper, then place the snickers on top and pull the dough up around it and pinch the top together. If you like a soft cookie, 12 minutes baking time would probably be sufficient. Let us know if you have a problem, because these are fabulous and we don't want you to miss out.
