I created this recipe by trial and error using many different kinds of candy. Milky Ways were the secret surprise my family liked best. Ingredients:
1 cup shortening |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
2 cups packed brown sugar |
1 cup sugar |
3 eggs |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
4-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2 packages (13.3 ounces each) fun-size milky way candy bar |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream the shortening, butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. 2. Roll into 1-1/2-in. balls. Cut each candy bar into fourths; push one portion into the center of each ball, completely covering candy with dough. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. 3. Bake at 350° for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown and surface cracks. Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: 9 dozen. |
