Snickers Cookies

Halloween is going to look a little different this year but one thing’s not going to change: Halloween candy!

We simply cannot resist buying those special boxes of Halloween chocolate and candy bars. Who says Halloween treats are just for kids?

We regret it as soon as we get home, of course. Because now we have 200 pieces of chocolate to eat all by ourselves lol.

I do love baking with candy bars though. And these Snicker surprise cookies are in my top 3 (together with these SKOR cookies).

Soft and chewy, easy to make, always a hit. They’re perfect for your Christmas cookie tray too.

Notes

  1. The yield/number of cookies depends on how big or small you scoop your cookie dough. I use a medium cookie scoop and make 15 cookies.
  2. You can use regular sized Snickers chocolate bars. The minis look like they’re about half the size of the regular bar so you’ll need 5-6 of those.
  3. See post for complete step-by-step photos.
