Snickers Cookies

from www.heatherdrive.blogspot.com

Ingredients:
- 2 sticks butter or margarine, softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 bags Snickers miniatures
- chocolate candy melts, for drizzling
- powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Directions:
1. Using a mixer, combine the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add peanut butter and mix until combined.

2. Slowly add eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combined. Gradually add dry ingredients to the mixture.

3. Cover and chill dough for at least 2-3 hours.

4. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Unwrap all Snickers.

5. Remove dough from refrigerator. Using a tablespoon, measure out a round tablespoon of dough. Put piece of dough on your work surface and flatten with the palm of your hand. Place a Snickers miniature in the center of each piece of dough. Wrap edges of dough around the Snickers, then roll dough between your hands to form a ball.

6. . Place on greased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes. (Baking time and temperature may need to be adjusted if using bigger pieces of dough. For me, the perfect amount of baking time was about 15 minutes.)

7. Let cookies cool on wax paper or wire racks.

8. Drizzle cookies with melted chocolate. Once chocolate dries, sprinkle powdered sugar over cookies.
