Cookie Dough & Candy

So first of all, let’s not kid ourselves… There will be no nutrition facts for this one. You don’t mess with cookies AND little mini chocolates and expect them to be healthy. My trainer would kick my but if eat more than 1 of these so they are going to work. Well most are going to work and I’ll keep a few here for Cancy.

This recipe comes from Pioneer Woman. I love, love, love her site. I adore Ree’s style of writing. She has the best love story, some great pictures, and oh yeah, her recipes. Everything she makes looks delicious. Maybe not the healthiest, but sooooo yummy. Here is the link to her original recipe. While you’re there, make sure you check out the rest of her site and make extra sure that you check out her other recipes.

Cookie Dough and Candy

Refrigerator cookie dough (I used peanut butter cookie & chocolate chip cookie dough)

Miniature chocolate candies: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Rolos, Hershey’s Kisses

 

Slice the cookie dough into 1 ¼ inch slices.

Next, lay the slices on their side and cut them into quarters.

Place each quarter into a greased mini-muffin tin

Peel the wrapper from of as many pieces of candy as cookies you’re going to make.

Bake the cookie dough at 350 degrees for just a few minutes - 6 to 8 at the most. You’ll want to take them out just when they start to turn golden.

As soon as you pull the warm cookies from the oven, you’ll want to begin lightly pressing one piece of candy into each cookie.
