Holiday Cookie #5: Salted Chocolate-Caramel Snickers Cookies

October 28, 2014 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 41 Comments

I’m a tad late on last week’s Holiday Cookie installment. To make make-up for it, you’ll see two this week. To start, I’m sharing these over-the-top Salted Caramel-Chocolate Snicker Cookies.

I made one batch of these with a Rolo center and they disappeared before I could shoot them. So like any good wife and mom, I upped the edible factor on the second batch by stuffing them with my family’s favorite candy, Snickers.

They went just as fast, but at least I made sure to shoot them first. Funny thing when you are a food blogger, you always have food laying around waiting to be shot, especially desserts, since most times it doesn’t degrade as it sits, like most hot foods. Come to my house and you are likely to hear, “Don’t eat those. They’re two days old (sometimes up to a week – gasp!) and waiting to be shot” or you might see me hand-selecting the best of the batch for shooting. It’s total madness.

Yield: 36 cookies

Ingredients

Recipe adapted from here 2 3/4cups all-purpose flour 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup butter, softened 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup packed brown sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla 36 mini Snickers 12 vanilla caramels, unwrapped 1 tablespoon whipping cream, half-and-half, or light cream Coarse salt

  • Recipe adapted from here
  • 2 3/4cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 36 mini Snickers
  • 12 vanilla caramels, unwrapped
  • 1 tablespoon whipping cream, half-and-half, or light cream
  • Coarse salt

Instructions

Preparation: Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line bake sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl stir together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

In a large bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add granulated and brown sugar. Beat until combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour mixture as you can with the mixer. Stir in any remaining flour mixture. If necessary, cover and chill for 1 hour or until dough is easy to handle.

Shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Press a Snickers bite into each ball and shape dough around caramel to enclose. Place cookies 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are firm. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; cool completely.

To finish: Place vanilla caramels and whipping cream in a small pan over medium-low heat and cook until caramels melt and mixture is smooth. Drizzle melted caramel mixture over cookies and then sprinkle cookies with coarse salt. Let stand until set.

    I totally feel you about having tons of dessert lying around. Sometimes I get in dessert ruts and end up having no real food. Cookies for dinner is common.
    And I would love it be these cookies. Um, snickers inside? GIMME THAT. Pinned!

  10. The Blonde Chef says

    Oh man, chocolate cookies stuffed with snickers?! This is like the dessert of my dreams! I can’t believe your family didn’t gobble these up as soon as they emerged from the oven! I know I wouldn’t have been able to wait! Yum!

  11. Shashi @ runninsrilankan says

    October 29, 2014 at 4:27 am

    Haha – my daughter gets tired of waiting on me to shoot my photos – so I can totally understand your food “disappearing” asap – specially when they are cookies with rolos or snickers! Gorgeous photos as always!

  12. Lauren @ Climbing Grier Mountain says

    October 29, 2014 at 5:31 am

    LOL!! My husband gets tired of waiting for me to finish shooting, too. Can’t blame them. Thankfully it’s worth the wait bc these cookies are AMAZING!!

    YUM!! So excited for holiday cookies!

  15. Brian Samuels says

    October 29, 2014 at 5:52 am

    I’m pretty sure everything should have a little salt on top. I started putting sea salt on my ice cream. I find it helps pop the flavors. These cookies look dynamite!

  16. Naomi Robinson says

    October 29, 2014 at 6:01 am

    Hi Karishma – Thanks for letting me know. I fixed it.

    I’m cracking up at your “don’t eat those…” 😉 These look so delicious, Naomi. And, being a peanut lover, I’m glad you posted the Snickers version.

  22. Natasha says

    October 29, 2014 at 9:37 am

    Wow, these look incredible! I can’t wait to make them. I’m also glad to hear I’m not the only blogger who has desserts sitting around waiting to be photographed!

  23. Gaby says

    October 29, 2014 at 10:00 am

    October 29, 2014 at 11:36 am

    Haha! I think we need to start a support group for family members of bloggers. Those poor spouses and children who have to wait for the cookies to be shot before they can devour them.
    These look incredible. So excited we get 2 cookies this week.

  26. Stacey @ Bake.Eat.Repeat. says

    October 29, 2014 at 2:48 pm

    October 29, 2014 at 7:54 pm

    Caramel inside cookies is the best isn’t it! Love your beautiful photos of these delicious cookies!

    October 30, 2014 at 5:15 am

    Happy that the rolos didn’t work out! Snickers are my favorite as well! Love the thought of chunks of peanuts being in the center! Thanks, Naiomi 🙂

  32. Amanda @ Cookie Named Desire says

    October 30, 2014 at 6:55 am

    Yes, that sounds like my house. I leave signs everywhere. “Do not eat!!” or “Only eat the ugly ones!” When I finally do get around to taking photos, I have people sitting there waiting for me to say I am finished so they can rip everything apart.

  33. Anna @ Crunchy Creamy Sweet says

    October 30, 2014 at 10:21 am

    They sure do like cookies that would go fast! LOVE the caramel drizzle!

  34. Tiffany | offbeat + inspired says

  35. Bianca @ Confessions of a Chocoholic says

    October 30, 2014 at 1:06 pm

    I’ve made peanut butter stuffed with snickers before but I think I would like these better! I also like the idea of stuffing with rolos. Yum!

  36. Kristen @ Dinner For Two Blog says

    October 30, 2014 at 2:46 pm

    oh my yum! salted caramel and snickers! sounds amazing!

  37. Jennifer Farley says

    These are just gorgeous!

  38. Tara @ Deliciously Declassified says

    October 30, 2014 at 7:17 pm

    These look super tasty – and the perfect way to use up extra Halloween candy!

  39. Kathleen @ Yummy Crumble says

    October 31, 2014 at 1:24 pm

    These look great! I have Tupperware full of uneaten and waiting to be photographed desserts too. My family gets grumpy when I do that 🙂 Love your photos as always!

  40. Dorothy @ Crazy for Crust says

    November 6, 2014 at 4:09 pm

    Seriously omg. They’d have disappeared here too…and I would have been the culprit!

Bolognese Toast with Burrata. I served this for di Bolognese Toast with Burrata. I served this for dinner (not in this styled fashion) and my boys said “That legit is NOT dinner.”

They grumpily ate this. I feel no guilt. I’m pretty sure they know how to pour themselves a bowl of cereal, if they’re still hungry.
