Servings 28 cookies
Calories 116kcal
Ingredients
- ¼ cup unsalted butter softened
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup salted caramel
- 1 ¼ cups SNICKERS® Bites halved and quartered
Instructions
- In a large bowl, measure in the butter, applesauce and sugars. Using a hand mixer, cream the ingredients until smooth.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients. Mix until combined.
- In a medium-sized bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk to combine, then slowly measure into the wet ingredients, mixing until the ingredients are incorporated.
- Once the dry ingredients have been mixed into the wet ingredients, measure in the chopped SNICKERS® Bites and the caramel, folding in with a spatula until just incorporated.
- Once the dough has been prepared, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for at least one hour.
- When the dough has finished chilling, preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
- Using a cookie scoop, dollop the chilled dough on the baking sheet, leaving 2" between each cookie, as they spread out quite a bit.
- Transfer the baking sheet into the oven, and bake for 12 minutes, or until the cookies have flattened and are crisping up around the edges.
- When the cookies have finished baking, let them cool on a cooling rack. Serve warm with milk, and enjoy!
Notes
Please note that the prep time includes the chilling time of the dough.
