Candy Bar Cookies

Personally my two favorite things to do on Sunday afternoons are taking naps


and baking. Especially baking cookies. I found an awesome recipe awhile ago and fell in love with it. The original is a Twix cookie cookie and oh man are they good. Today however we wanted to make them but didn't have any Twix. We did however have a king sized Symphony bar. You know the one with toffee and almonds. Yeah you see where I'm going :) So here's what you need.

Ingredients:
2 cups and 2 Tbs. Flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar (I like dark brown sugar for cookies)
12 Tbs. butter

1 egg and 1 egg yolk
2 tsp. vanilla extract

1 giant yes giant sized Symphony candy bar



Directions:
-Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
-In a small bowl stir together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set bowl aside for later
-Melt butter and mix with sugar and brown sugar

-Mix in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla

-Add flour mixture in portions till all is mixed in

-Cut the candy bar into chocolate chip sized pieces

-Mix candy into cookie dough

Use your favorite scoop and load up your cookie sheets. I STRONGLY suggest that you line the cookie sheets with parchment paper. Doing so avoids all chance of sticking and makes for not having to wash the sheets. 

-Bake cookies for 15-18mins. 
Watch the bottoms to see if they are slightly brown. If they are take them out. 

 -And POOF! You have amazing candy bar cookies!!!

So there you have it. May you have a relaxing and joyful Sunday. 

This recipe has been hubby tested and hubby approved!
