Snicker Surprise Cookies


Ingredients:

2 sticks butter (softened)
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
3 1/2 cups sifted flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 bag mini snickers bars

Directions: Combine the butter, peanut butter, and sugars using a mixer on a medium to low speed until light and fluffy. Slowly add eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combined. Then mix in flour, baking soda and salt. Cover and chill dough for 2-3 hours. Unwrap candy bars, remove dough from fridge and form a thin layer of dough around each candy bar. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 325 for 10-12 minutes. Let cookies cool on baking rack.
Makes 2 dozen cookies.
To spruce up the surprises, sprinkle with powdered sugar and drizzle melted chocolate (I used 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 Tbsp. cocoa and about 1 Tbsp. milk) over the top of each cookie.
