Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup (250g) peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups (155g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (about 78 bars) Snickers bars, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (115g) of softened unsalted butter, 1 cup (250g) of peanut butter, 1/2 cup (100g) of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup (100g) of light brown sugar until smooth and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture. Beat until fully combined and creamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups (155g) of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  5. Fold in 1 cup (about 7-8 bars) of chopped Snickers pieces using a spatula. Make sure the pieces are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they’ll set as they cool.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Notes

[‘Don’t overmix the dough to avoid tough cookies.’, ‘Chop Snickers evenly for better distribution.’, ‘Slightly underbake the cookies for a chewy texture.’, ‘Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.’, ‘Let butter and egg come to room temperature before mixing.’]
