We used the same dough from the stuffed cookie recipe but using just one 3/4" rolled ball, we baked them in a mini muffin tin and added the candy after it baked! So delicious. You get a soft cookie with a burst of chocolate from the candy bars. And you don't feel as guilty as eating a full stuffed cookie!
 |
| We had a lot of extra candy |
 |
| Rolled the dough, put them in a mini muffin tin and into the oven |
 |
| We cut up the candy bars. Quartered the Reese's Pieces and cut all the rest into thirds besides the whoppers. |
 |
| After 20 minutes in a 300 degree oven, we took them out and stuck the candy in each one. |
 |
| Then let them cool. |
 |
| They get all gooey and yummy. |
 |
| Once cooled, they are perfect bite sized cookies! |
Recipe (adapted from Sugar Loco and Fantastic Family Favorite's):
- 2 1/8 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 12 TBSPs butter (1 1/2 sticks), melted and cooled slightly
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsps vanilla extract
- 7-8 fun size packets of M&M's
- Candies to stuff inside the cookies (Reese's work best, Crunch bars, Oreos, Snickers, Butterfingers, etc)
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Prepare a mini muffin pan, by greasing with butter or pan spray. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, blend the granulated and brown sugars. Add the butter and beat to form a grainy paste. Add the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla, then beat at medium speed until fully combined. Add the flour mixture and blend at low speed until just combined; do no over mix. Fold in the M&Ms.
For each cookie, roll a 3/4 inch ball and press slightly into muffin cups.
Bake in oven for 20 minutes.
Press the treat of your choice into the center of the cookie. Let cool for about 15 minutes (even longer if you can) before attempting to remove them from the cups.
