Snickers Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies *

1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1-2 Tbsp milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
3 regular sized snickers bars, each cut into 8 chunks

Cream together both butters and both sugars until light and fluffy.  Beat in the egg, vanilla, and milk.  Whisk together the flour, soda and salt.  Stir this into the creamed mixture to combine well.  Cover and chill for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350.  Line 2 large baking sheets with baking paper.

Scoop out 2 Tbsp of the cookie dough and flatten in the palm of your hand.  Place a snickers piece in the center.  Wrap dough up over it and then roll the dough in your hand to completely cover the chocolate bits.  Place on the baking sheet leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.  Press lightly on top with a fork to leave impression, but not flatten.

Bake about 12-15 minutes until the cookies are just beginning to brown around the edges.  Allow to cool on the cookie sheets for about 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Makes 24
