Ahhh, me and my cookies! (no complaints from the family, just getting to be somewhat like a following!) Just an idea variation to get more chocolate into each bite...you can easily make one batch to showcase an assortment of candy, since all the classics come in minis. *prep time does not include the 1 hour chilling time.* Ingredients:
2/3 cup sugar |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 large egg, at room temperature |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 1/4 cups flour |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 (11 1/2 ounce) bag snickers miniature candy bars (you'll need 1 for each cookie) |
4 ounces white chocolate or 4 ounces milk chocolate or 4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped |
2 teaspoons shortening |
Directions:
1. Cream the sugar and butter in a medium bowl using an electric mixer at medium speed; scrape sides of bowl as needed.
2. Add egg and vanilla; blend well.
3. Reduce mixer speed to low; gradually blend in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt just until combined.
4. Wrap dough in plastic wrap; refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
5. Preheat oven to 375°F.
6. Shape dough into 1 balls; space 1 apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Make an indentation in the center of each cooke with the back of a spoon or a finger. (the edges may slightly.
7. Bake 10-12 minutes or until edges are set. Cool cookies on cookie sheets for 1 minute; transfer cookies to wire racks and immediately press a mini Snicker's into each center. Cool completely.
8. Melt the white chocolate and shortening together over low heat, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over each cooke; let stand until set.
