We have a ton of leftover candy. Probably over 200 pieces. So i will be busy baking with them.
Today – snickers stuffed inside peanut m&m cookies, which basically use a chocolate chip cookie dough, but instead of chocolate chips, i used peanut m&ms.
Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. I recommend chilling the individual doughs for a few hours before baking, and preheat your oven before baking.
