I started off with the Nestle Toll House cookies I made a while back. While the dough was chilling in the fridge I cut up four mini snickers and opened a bag of M&M's.
I then divided the dough in half, and popped one half back in the fridge so it would keep firming up.
M&M cookies
Ingredients:
1/2 quantity of Nestle Toll House cookie dough
Approximately 80 M&M's (four for each cookie)
Method:
Preheat the oven to 195 degrees C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
Roll heaped tablespoons into balls and place onto prepared cookie sheet approx 6 cms apart.
After they have been in the oven for four minutes (to allow them to spread), quickly pull them out of the oven and pop some M&M's on top of each cooke (I used 4 per cookie, but you can always use more), rotate the tray and put them back in the oven for the remainder of the baking time.
Bake for 8 to 11 minutes (mine took 8 minutes) or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Makes 16 - 20 cookies depending on size.
Snickers centred cookies
4 mini snickers, thinly chopped (2 pieces per cookie - one to insert into centre, one for top of the cookie)*
Roll a heaped tablespoon of dough into a ball and make a well in the centre. Insert snickers piece and carefully cover it up with cookie dough. Place on baking tray and top with another piece of snickers. Repeat with remaining dough.
Bake for 8 to 11 minutes (mine took 8 minutes) or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Makes 16 - 20 cookies depending on size.
* While pleased with the outcome of the cookies, I think next time I would insert a larger chunk into the centre and top with at least two snickers pieces for a more intense snickers taste!
