Ingredients

• 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, or softened butter
• 6 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1 cup quick cooking oats
• 3/4 cup baking chips, butterscotch, chocolate, white, etc.
• 1/3 cup rice krispies cereal
• 18 snack size snickers candy bars, unwrapped

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large bowl, cream butters and sugars together. Stir in egg and vanilla bean paste and whip until light in color and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Slowly stir in baking soda, salt, flour and oats until just combined. Stir in remaining ingredients, excluding the snickers, by hand.

Using a cookie scoop, create 8 cookie dough balls on your prepared baking sheet. Press dough down flat. Top with a mini snickers bar and place another scoop of cookie dough over top. Press the dough around the snickers bar to cover completely.

Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until cookie starts to turn light golden brown on the bottom. Cool 3 to 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack. Serve warm with milk! YUM
