1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 bag SNICKERS Miniatures
1 bag DOVE Milk or Dark Chocolate Gifts

Combine the butter, peanut butter, and sugars using a mixer on a medium to low speed until light and fluffy.

Slowly add eggs and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined. Then mix in flour, salt and baking soda. Cover and chill dough for 2 to 3 hours.

Unwrap all SNICKERS Miniatures. Remove dough from refrigerator. Divide into 1 tablespoon pieces and flatten. Place a SNICKERS Miniatures in the center of each piece of dough. Form the dough into a ball around each SNICKERS Miniatures. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 300 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes. Let cookies cool on baking rack or wax paper. (Holiday Hint: Spruce up Santa's surprise by drizzling melted DOVE Milk or Dark Chocolate Chocolate Gifts over the top of each cookie!)

Makes 2 dozen cookies.
