Candy Bar Cookies? Have I gone mad? Well, no but was craving some chocolate….sorry for those of you who are so good and still dieting 🙂
I used the same technique I’ve been using with those giant Oreo Stuffed Cookies and am just loving it. Ooey Gooey on the inside and perfectly buttery crisp on the outside, just how I like it!I would highly recommend that you use the exact cookie dough recipe I have written below. It holds it’s shape perfectly for these giant cookies. Grab some milk, endulge…..then go workout tomorrow. Enjoy!!
I used 3 of my favorite snack size candy bars as pictured above. Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, Snickers and Kit Kat. I believe you could use any of your favorites here 🙂
First up, Reeses Peanut Butter Cup….my absolute favorite 🙂 Place a nice big scoop on top and…
…..a nice big scoop on the bottom 🙂
Use both hands to press and seal edges. You’ll get this giant head sized cookie.
Do the same with your Snickers, one giant scoop on top, one on bottom…press and seal edges!
Same story for your Kit Kat Bar. I shaped it a bit oval which worked great.
Ready for the oven.
Bake at 350 degrees F, 14-16 minutes!
Can you just die?! Here’s the inside of the Snickers Cookie.
The inside of the Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Cookie, mmm!
…and the fabulous Kit Kat Bar Cookie. Love every single one of these bad boys!

Just made these! I cut the recipe in half because I didn’t want to make a lot since it’s my first time trying out the recipe, and it was enough for 6 Kit Kat cookies and 6 Reese’s cookies (I don’t have any Snickers on hand, unfortunately). And they came out incredible! Thank you so much for sharing this 🙂 Will definitely make these for the rest of my life!
Oh my God, this is straight up food porn. Great recipe!
what is two sticks of butter?! that is not a real mesure ment!
I made these with little snack-sized Reese’s cups to make some smaller ones (I ended up with a little over 30 regular-sized cookies), and oh my god. My dad, my husband, and my little man were all over them. I only got a couple! Excellent recipe, will definitely make again!
The dough looks like it’s still raw… I just saw the pictures and they gave me a stomach ache… Oh my god imagine of fat little kids eating these!!!
I literally just drooled onto my huge pregnant belly when I saw the Reeses cookie pic. Off to the kitchen to bake!
I only got 12 cookies out of this dough. Did I make them too big?? Based on the size of the candy bars, I don’t think I could make them too much smaller. Any thoughts?
I tried this recipe last night and they came out great! thank you for the recipe!! 🙂
Yummy – looks decadent.
Made the oreo ones. but I prefer your pan. gonna look for that
looks delish. Made the oreo ones came out perfectly, but I prefer the shape of YOUR pan. Gonna look for that one.
Holy sweet-tooth, Batman.
these look deadly.
going to make them tonight! lol
What a fun way to combine two delicious treats together! I think the kit kat cookie would just be divine! =)
So.. found these stumbling and they made my mouth water – made em about 20 minutes later. I used reese’s pb cups, and an aero bar (didn’t have anything else). I made my cookies extra large – my batch made 12 (hehe)
SUPER AWESOME!! I needed a glass of milk for dipping, and one more for afterwards. Thanks for sharing this great idea 🙂
They look so good. My husbands a big Reese’s Piece’s fan…so I’ll have to try it with that. Thanks! If I make it I’ll post my results and link to your site.

This is a very sinful delight
These look fantastic! Will be sure to try them.
These are fantastic. We always have leftover candy in our cupboard so it was great to clean it all out. I used KitKats, Recess and Milky ways. I will definitely be making these again.
Finally made these yesterday, and they are unbelievable!!! I used PB cups and Kit Kat bars… the PB cups were hands down the fave here!!
I made a batch of these today (after dreaming about them since I read this post and saw your pictures) and they are indeed fantastic. Thanks so much! (You can check out my post and pictures on my blog.)
So I just finished making and sampling these awesome cookies! WOW! Thanks for the great recipe!
These look great! I had seen a similar recipe using milky way in the center of cookies. I bet these didn’t last long! YUM!
The doctor told me this morning that I am 4cm dilated and fully effaced. If I start baking these cookies this afternoon can someone please please guarantee that I will still be around to enjoy them and they won’t be gobbled up by my family while I am in the hospital delivering this baby???
I was telling my husband about this recipe and half way through the description he says, “Stop! You had me @ Fun Size!!!” Ha! Can’t wait to make these!
Those sound too wonderful!!!!!!!!
Oh goodness, these look addictive!
Dessert time could not be any easier, and I agree the 5 lb. weight gain from just looking at them.
Wow,I think I just gained 5 lbs reading your post! This is my first time visiting and looks like you have lot’s of fun creative recipes. My boys would go crazy over this! We still have Halloween candy left over this is a great way to use them in a yummy new way!
These look incredible!
Oh boy…I’ve died and gone to cookie heaven.
I have died and gone to cookie heaven! these are on the list of things to bake this weekend! Oh my husband’s guys are gonna love me and all the leftovers!!
I’m sure I’ve said this many times before, but you’re a genius, girl! What else can we stuff inside those chocolate chip cookies??
I love your recipes. They’re so fun. I wish you had a cookbook with all of these!
Tried these last night. LOVE them. Thanks for the recipe!
