Cookie Dough
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup chopped Snickers bars
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the cookies evenly.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, use a mixer to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Then, beat in the eggs thoroughly to combine all the wet ingredients.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring carefully until just combined to avoid overmixing.
- Fold in Snickers: Gently fold the chopped Snickers bars into the cookie dough, distributing them evenly to get bits of caramel, nougat, and peanuts in every cookie.
- Bake Cookies: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a non-stick surface, spacing them apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear set but still chewy.
Notes
- For even baking, use uniform dough spoonfuls.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire rack to prevent breakage.
- Store baked cookies in an airtight container to maintain chewiness.
- You can substitute Snickers with your favorite chocolate candy bars if desired.
