Candy Bar Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2
    cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2
    cups sugar
  • 1/4
    teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8
    teaspoon salt
  • 1/2
    cup cold butter
  • 1/2
    cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4
    cup honey
  • 1
    tablespoon milk
  • 1/2
    12 ounce package chocolate-covered peanut clusters or 1-1/3 cups (8 oz.) candy-coated peanut butter pieces
Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. In a large mixing bowl stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter and peanut butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine honey and milk; drizzle over flour mixture. Using a wooden spoon, stir until combined.

2. For each cookie, shape a well-rounded tablespoon of dough into a ball. Flatten in the palm of your hand. Place an approximate 1-inch peanut cluster* or a slightly rounded teaspoon of small candy-coated peanut butter pieces in the center of the dough. Shape dough up and around candy, rolling into a ball. Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

3. Bake about 12 minutes or until the bottoms of cookies are lightly browned. Let stand for 1 minute on cookie sheet before removing. Transfer cookies to wire rack; cool. If desired, freeze cookies in a freezer container or freezer bag up to three months; thaw about 15 minutes before serving. Makes 20 to 24 cookies.
