Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 12 SNICKERS® Minis halved

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
2. Using electric mixer, beat butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy; beat in peanut butter. Beat in egg, then beat in vanilla. Stir in flour mixture just until blended. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (to make cookies easier to roll and shape.)

3. Divide dough into 24 portions. On lightly floured work surface, working with one portion at a time, divide each portion in half, pressing to flatten. Place 1 SNICKERS® Mini half in center of one half of cookie; top with remaining half of cookie, pressing down lightly.

4. Transfer cookies to parchment paper–lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Press to flatten slightly with tines of fork.
5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until cookies are set around edge and bottoms are golden brown. Transfer to rack; let cool completely.
