Salted Snickers Cookies

Salted Snickers Cookies have crisp buttery edges, a soft and chewy middle that's loaded with chopped snickers candy bar pieces and sprinkled with flaky sea salt. The caramel becomes nice and gooey while the peanuts add delicious nutty flavor and the sea salt gives a nice contrast to the sweetness of the cookies.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350℉ (or 180℃).
Line two rimmed, metal baking pans with silicone liners or parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of your stand mixer, cream the butter with both sugars until light and fluffy. About 3 to 4 minutes. Add in the vanilla and one egg at a time, mixing and scraping down the sides of the bowl after each one.
Gradually add in the dry ingredients, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl after each addition. Mix until the flour is incorporated. Add in the chopped candy bars and mix a few times until throughout the dough - for large chunks of candy bar in your cookies, be careful not to over mix.
Use a 2-tablespoon scoop and place rounded scoops of dough onto prepared pans. I do 8 cookies per pan.
Bake on the middle rack of your preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with flaky salt.
Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for at least 5 minutes before using a spatula to transfer each cookie to a wire cooling rack. Repeat with remaining dough.
