So Sally has this friend who is in love with Snickers candy bars. Literally. It's a very deep and affectionate relationship, where she promises to always love and cherish Snickers... and then she eats them. I don't claim to understand it.
Anyway, in honor of said friend's upcoming birthday, we decided to make cookies. Stuffed with Snickers, of course. The recipe went something like this:
Take lots of Snicker bars. They don't have to be the "fun size" or the "mini" size - any kind will do. Unwrap them from the wrapper.
And chop them into bite size pieces. I cut the fun sized ones in half, but you could make them smaller (or larger!) depending on how big you want your cookies to be... and the Snicker to cookie ratio. Stick them in the fridge to make sure they don't melt later when you roll them in cookie dough.
Make your favorite chocolate chip cookie dough recipe (or peanut butter cookies would probably go along well too... so would snickerdoodles).
Then take some of the dough, and wrap it around a piece of Snickers until it's completely covered. (Rolling the cookie dough into a ball, smashing it flat, placing the Snickers in the center and pulling up the sides of the dough seemed to work best for me.) You might have to pull out some chocolate chips in order to fully cover the Snickers... but never fear, those lonely chips in the corner were consumed, just like these cookies.
Stick em in the oven at 350 degrees for around 12 minutes and you should be good to go!
And when they come out of the oven, they look like normal chocolate chip cookies. Except they're not. Cause they have Snickers inside :) The caramel and chocolate from the Snickers tends to harden a little bit after the cookies cool, but you should still end up with a chewy chocolate Snickers cookie.
