Snickers Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies

Wednesday, December 28, 2016 by Lolli 12 Comments

My husband has been making peanut butter cookies topped with Hershey’s Kisses for years. One year, ages ago, we ran out of Kisses in the middle of a batch but happened to have a handful of Snickers minis left over from Halloween trick-or-treating in the kitchen.

I don’t recall if we tried the Snickers on top of the cookies to start out, or if we tried them stuffed inside the cookie dough from the beginning. Either way, the Snickers-stuffed peanut butter cookies quickly became MY favorite variety, and we’ve been making them ever since.

We don’t make Snickers-stuffed cookies that often, but they always make an appearance during the holiday season. And when we make them, I can’t stay away from them!

It’s funny how baking two delicious things together like this makes the finished result taste better than either of the things on their own. Trust me. These cookies are to die for!

This recipe is based on my husband’s famous peanut butter blossoms recipe – it really IS the BEST! The only difference is that we wrap the dough around Snickers minis before baking.

One little tip: you really don’t need more than a small spoonful of dough – just enough to cover the snickers. When you place the dough “balls” on the cookie sheet, keep them as balls. Don’t flatten or spread them out.

Snickers Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies

Snickers Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1¾ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup butter (not margarine)
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 48 mini Snickers (approximately)

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine both sugars, butter, peanut butter, milk, vanilla, and egg. Using hand beaters, mix wet ingredients til they're creamy. Add ingredients of the wet bowl into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until they're thoroughly mixed.
  4. Wrap a small spoonful of dough around each mini Snickers - you just need a small spoonful of dough to cover the candy. Place each cookie dough-covered Snickers onto cookie sheet. Bake at 375°F for 9-11 minutes, or until slightly browned.
  5. Let cookies cool on the cookie sheet for a couple of minutes and then remove them to a cooling rack.

Another tip that I highly recommend…Be sure to grab a couple while they’re warm! There is nothing like a warm peanut butter cookie with melty chocolate and caramel on the inside! I’ve also used Milky Way and 3 Musketeers, which both work just fine, but the Snickers result in the best cookies, in my opinion.

Have you ever tried stuffing a treat inside cookie dough before baking? We have had fantastic results. Check out the other “stuffed” cookies that we’ve made in the past:

    I have made the peanut blossoms for years but this recipe may be kicking that one to the curb. How delicious.

    What lovely they are! That is so exciting idea. I will try to make for my kids.
    I guess they would be surprised when they eat the Snickers inside. So great! :)

    These cookies are wonderful!!! The hardest part was not eating the Snickers while I was unwrapping them. It was worth the wait, when I bit into the cooked, warm, goodie I was amazed. Love them!!!

    Now that’s what I call a happy accident! We make peanut butter blossoms every year too but I’d have to agree – these are special.
