No snickers on hand, but lots of high quality milk chocolate so just subbed all milk chocolate. Sprinkled half the batch with the coarse sea salt. They were supposed to go to my boyfriend’s office tomorrow, but I don’t think there are any left (it’s only been 6 hours since I made them). I really like the texture of this cookie – lends itself well to pretty much anything you want to add and is a bit on the chewy side. PERFECT!
These cookies are my family’s favorite! I usually make them with regular snickers but tonight I tried the snickers peanut butter. Definitely not as good!!!!! The difference was very noticeable. My husband says it was too much peanut butter and I say not enough gooey caramel. Never again! I’ll stick to regular snickers when making these from now on.
Do the snickers have to be cold or at room temperature? I’m scared of them melting completely in the oven.
Hi Gabriela, The Snickers can be at room temperature. They will melt a little bit into the cookie, which is what makes them delicious!
Thank you Michelle. I love your website. I discovered it just some days ago and It’s amazing. Congrats for the yummy and excellent food you prepare. =)
Just made these tonight for my kids piano recital. Used the peanut butter snickers. They were easy to make and delicious! The plate come home empty…everyone loved them. Thanks for a wonderful new recipe
I’m going to make these once the kids are up from nap. Going to use the homemade honey roasted peanut butter that’s been all over lately, and then chop up both the peanut butter snickers Easter bunny and Reese’s cup Easter bunny from our Easter baskets to use as the candy. Can’t wait!
And they were awesome! Had to freeze some of the dough to save myself. Looking forward to making them again. Thanks for the great recipe!
I just found this recipe last night. Already went out this morning to buy the snickers and my oven is preheating! Soooooooo excited to try these!
WOW! Just made these and they are absolutely delicious!
I used half low fat spread/half butter, reduced the granulated sugar to 1/2 cup, used a few tbsp of biscoff in place of some of the peanut butter, and added both milk and dark chips.
Thanks for the recipe, will make them again later in the week for my friend
:)
Dear Michelle,
I love the new look that your blog has! And these cookies look fab as well :)
Just made these for a cookie bake tonight…. I had to try one (since I can’t bring them if they weren’t delish!) and they are SUPERB! Not only were they super easy, they are different from all other cookies that will be there. Always a plus! I only had salted butter so I left out the 1/4 tsp of salt that was called for in the recipe and they came out great. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!
OMFG, these are by far the best cookies I have every had/made. I have made the recipe 4 times now, and every time they come out amazing! No one (my husband especially!) ever requests any other cookies now! Thank you so much! PS I have become completely obsessed with your blog, and can’t wait to keep baking, thanks for reigniting my fire for baking!
OH MY GOSH!!! Have you no shame?!? These cookies are EVIL! :)
I got 4 cavities just making the dough- not kidding… My first cookie sheet is just getting ready to come out of the oven. If I end up in a sugar coma, I’m sending the sugar police to your house! :) LOL!!! Thanks for posting this recipe… (My dentist will thank you, too!)
This was a great recipe! I used peanut-butter chips instead of snickers and it came out great! And, I made almost double the amount of cookies that this says it can make. Very good recipe with delicious cookies!
Just made these and they are SINFULLY delicious!! I ran out of creamy peanut butter and finished off with chunky pb…DEE-LISH!! Rave reviews from everyone we shared them with. Thanks for the fab recipe!!
yep, i had A LOT of fun. these are deadly. very deadly ;)
