snickers bar cookies
(1 rating)
After going through the cupboard and challenging myself to create another fun cookie but something a little out of the ordinary I came up with these. Many variations have the cookie dough wrapped around the snickers bar, so I took it all apart and created my own dough recipe with cut up snickers in the dough. I also used Whole Wheat flour to give the cookie some body, better flavor and some whole grain goodness. AP flour is so old school, and not as healthy.
