Servings: 10 cake pops
Calories: 598kcal
Equipment
- 13 wooden sticks
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup all purpose flour (210 grams or 7 ⅓ ounces)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 13 fun size snicker bars
- 1 stick butter, softened to room temperature (114 grams or 4 grams)
- ½ cup sugar (100 grams or 3 ½ ounces)
- ½ cup brown sugar (100 grams or 3 ½ ounces)
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter (125 grams or 4 ⅓ ounces)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
- Prepare the Snickers bar by inserting the sticks into the center of the Snickers about ½ way up. If you leave half of the wrapper on, they are easier to insert.
- Put them in the freezer to harden while preparing the cookie dough.
- In a mixing bowl, place the butter, sugar and brown sugar. Cream until light and fluffy. Add the peanut butter and mix to combine well. Add the egg and vanilla.
- Last, add the flour mixture and mix until the dough cleans the side of the bowl, and it is completely mixed.
- Scoop 10 balls of dough with the #16 disher.
- Alternately, use a scant ⅓ cup for each ball. Flatten the balls between your hands. Center a snicker on a stick on the dough. Pulling the dough in on both sides, completely wrap the snicker in the peanut butter cookie. Seal the edges and top. Make sure the bottom is well sealed to the stick.
- Roll between your hands, so it looks like a corn dog. Place, seam side down, on a cookie sheet. Continue until they are all wrapped. Work as quickly as you can so the candy stays frozen when it goes into the oven, or leave the candy in the freezer while you do one at a time... Place well apart as they will spread.
- Bake for 14 to 16 minutes until golden brown. Cool completely.
- Yield: 10 Cookie Pops
Notes
These freeze well after baked. Thaw at room temperature to serve.
