Candy Corn and Peanut Cookies image

After having a peanut and candy corn mix that tasted fantastic I decided to make a cookie version! Candy corns melt in the middle creating a nougat like center. It's a great salty/sweet combo!

Time 33m

Yield 24-36 cookies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups sifted flour (140g)
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup salted peanuts
1/2-3/4 cup candy corn

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F.
  • Cream together butter, peanut butter and both sugars with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  • Add egg and vanilla and mix until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt.
  • Add flour mixture to butter mixture stirring until blended. Stir in peanuts.
  • Form 1 inch balls of dough, inserting one or two candy corns into the center. Make sure dough completely covers the candy on all sides. Place on baking sheet and slightly flatten.
  • Bake 13 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and immediately press a few candy corns into the top of each cookie. Let cool several minutes (baking sheet should be cool enough to touch). Carefully transfer cookies to wire rack to cool completely.
  • Have a Happy Halloween!
