Instructions
 

Preheat and Prepare:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Mix the Wet Ingredients:

  • In a large bowl, beat together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy and smooth. Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract; mix until fully combined.

Combine the Dry Ingredients:

  • In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Add the Snickers:

  • Fold in the chopped Snickers pieces (and optional chocolate chips or peanuts). Chill dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes for best results.

Scoop and Bake:

  • Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden but centers are still soft.

Cool and Serve:

  • Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Drizzle with caramel sauce if desired and enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Chill the dough before baking to keep cookies thick and chewy.
  • Sprinkle sea salt over warm cookies for a sweet-and-salty twist.
  • Freeze extra dough balls for a quick treat later — bake straight from frozen.
