CANDY BAR SURPRISE COOKIES RECIPE - (4/5)



Candy Bar Surprise Cookies Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by cecelia26_

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
30 About 30 mini chocolate candy bars, unwrapped (Milky Way, Snickers, 3 Musketeers, etc.)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, cream butter, sugars, and vanilla until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet, and stir to combine. Use an ice cream scoop to shape the dough into balls. Take a dough ball in one hand, and flatten it slightly. Place a mini candy bar in the middle of the cookie dough, and carefully fold the dough up and over the candy bar, completely enclosing it in dough. Reshape as needed. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and repeat with the remaining dough balls and candy bars, placing 12 cookies per baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until just beginning to turn golden on the edges. Remove from oven, cool on sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Makes 2 to 2 1/2 dozen cookies.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the cookies bake more evenly and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

Candy bar surprise cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of cookies that are sure to be a hit with friends and family. These cookies are also a great way to use up leftover candy bars.
