~~~SNICKER SURPRISE~~~

Here is the recipe for my AWARD WINNING cookies...yes, Grand Champion at the fair a few years ago. I still have the ribbon to prove it :)

2 sticks softened butter
1 C. creamy peanut butter
1 C. light brown sugar
1 C. sugar
2 eggs
1 t. vanilla
3 1/2 C. all purpose flour, sifted
1 t. baking soda
1/2 ts. salt
1 pkg. (13 oz.) Snickers Brand Miniatures

Combine the butter, peanut butter and sugars using a mixer on medium-low speed

Slowly add eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combined.

Then mix in flour, salt and baking soda.

Cover and chill dough for 2-3 hours.
Unwrap all of the Snickers Brand miniatures

Remove dough from refrigerator.

Divide into 1 tablespoon pieces and flatten.

Place a Snickers miniature in the center of each piece of dough.

Form the dough into a ball around each Snickers miniature.

Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 300° F. for 10-12 minutes.
Let cookies cool on baking rack or wax paper.

Spruce up with powdered sugar or drizzle melted Dove Brand Chocolates over the top of each cookie.
