Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 Snickers bars, chopped
Sweeteners:
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
Binding and Flavoring Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Crank your oven to a precise 350°F and grab a clean parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Cream 1 cup softened unsalted butter with 1 cup brown sugar and ½ cup granulated sugar until the mixture transforms into a fluffy, light consistency.
- Crack 2 large eggs into the butter mixture, incorporating them one at a time and stirring until completely blended. Pour in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
- Whisk 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour with 1 teaspoon baking soda and ½ teaspoon salt in a separate bowl to eliminate potential flour clumps.
- Gradually combine the dry ingredients with your butter mixture, stirring gently until the dough looks uniform and no flour streaks remain.
- Chop 3 Snickers bars into small chunks and fold them into the dough, along with 1 cup chocolate chips if you’re feeling extra indulgent.
- Scoop rounded tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving approximately 2 inches between each cookie.
- Slide the sheet into the preheated oven and bake for exactly 10-12 minutes, watching for golden-brown edges and slightly soft centers.
- Remove the sheet from the oven and let the cookies rest for 3-4 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack.
Notes
- Chop the Snickers bars into small, even pieces to ensure each cookie has a consistent chocolate and caramel distribution.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and maintain a thicker, chewier cookie texture.
- For a gluten-free version, swap all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend and check that your Snickers bars are also gluten-free.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days to maintain their soft, chewy texture.
