SNICKER TREASURE COOKIES
(SIMILAR RECIPE)
bit.ly/3VcXtlO
1/2 cup butter softened
3/4 cup peanut butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups flour
About 22 Snickers Minis unwrapped
Instructions
Cream butter, peanut butter, and both sugars in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add egg, vanilla, milk, and salt and baking soda. Mix until combined. Slowly add flour and mix until dough comes together. Chill your dough for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment or silpat baking mats.
Scoop 2 tablespoon sized balls of dough. Press each one flat in the palm of your hand, place a Snickers Mini in the center and wrap the dough around it, rolling to form a ball. Place on cookie sheet 2” apart.
Bake for 13-16 minutes, until they just begin to brown. Cool completely and remove from cookie sheets.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. They can be frozen in sealable containers or ziploc bags between layers of paper towels for up to one month.
TWIX COOKIES
SIMILAR RECIPE: bit.ly/3Wi8Km4
INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
pinch salt, optional and to taste
1 1/2 cups Twix, diced small and loosely piled in measuring cup (I used 26 mini size (not Fun Size) Twix from an 11.5-ounce bag; each bar diced into 4 small pieces)
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
INSTRUCTIONS
To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, sugars, egg, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until well-creamed, light and fluffy, about 5 minutes (or use a hand mixer and beat for at least 7 minutes).
Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, optional salt, and mix until just combined, about 1 minute.
Add the Twix, chocolate chips, and beat momentarily to incorporate, or fold in by hand.
Using a medium 2-inch cookie scoop, form heaping mounds (I made 28). Place mounds on a large plate, flatten mounds slightly with your palm, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 5 days, before baking. Do not bake with warm dough because cookies will spread and bake thinner and flatter.
Preheat oven to 350F, line a baking sheet with a Silpat Non-Stick Baking Mat, parchment, or spray with cooking spray. and place mounds on baking sheet, spaced at least 2 inches apart (I bake 8 cookies per sheet).
Bake for 8 to 9 minutes, or until edges have set and tops are just beginning to set, even if slightly undercooked, pale and glossy in the center. Do not bake longer than 10 minutes as cookies will firm up as they cool (The cookies shown in the photos were baked with dough that had been chilled overnight, allowed to come to room temp for 15 minutes, and were baked for 8 minutes, with trays rotated at the 4-minute mark. They have chewy edges with soft, pillowy centers).
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing and transferring to a rack to finish cooling.
ROLO SNACKS
SIMILAR RECIPE: bit.ly/3jlNGMX
25 small square pretzels
▢25 Rolo’s
▢25 M&M's
Variation: Pecans
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 250°F. Place the square pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil. Place one Rolo candy on top of each pretzel.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 3 minutes, until the Rolo's have softened. Remove from the oven and press a M&M on top (or use another pretzel or pecan instead if desired). Let cool

My Favourite Assorted Butter Cookies for Festive Season | Easy Spritz Cookies
My Favourite Assorted Butter Cookies For Festive Season – I promise to make a version WITHOUT EGGS, and here you go. I only replace the egg yolk (in the original egg version) to an additional tablespoon of heavy cream and that’s it!. It came out just the same as the egg version. A little crispy but it will melt in your mouth within seconds. You can make this one month in advance because the shelf life can be up to 2 to 3 months in an airtight container, best suited for any festive seasons or giveaways. What do you think? Let me know your comments in the comment box down below. Enjoy!

FAQ:
1. Why are my cookies melted or flattened in the oven while baking?
Precision of the ingredients is very important. I do recommend using a weighing scale to get precise measurement of the ingredients. Although I’ve given the cup measurements but that’s the last resort for those who really do not have a weighing scale.
2. Can I refrigerate the dough after piping so that the shape will not be flattened in the oven?
There is no need of chilling the piped dough before baking. I baked mine straight away and they don’t melt or flattened in the oven. With that being said, your measurement of the ingredients must be precise.
Ingredients:
200g (¾ cup + 2 tbsp) unsalted butter, softened
100g (½ cup) caster sugar
50g [3½ tbsp] heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp salt
220g [1¾ cup] cake flour
28g [3 tbsp] cornstarch
3g [2 tsp] green tea powder
4g [2 tsp] cocoa powder
Piping tip: 2C
80g white chocolate, melted
40g milk chocolate, melted
Coloured sprinkles
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven at 170°C/340°F.
2. In a large bowl, add the room temp (or softened) butter. Add sugar and salt. Mix them using a spatula so that the sugar the fly out. Then switch to an electric mixer. Mix on high speed for at least 1-2 minutes or until creamy, pale and fluffy.
3. Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Mix till combined.
4. Sift the cake flour and cornstarch in 2 batches. Fold in using a spatula. Sift the remaining dry ingredients until the flour disappear. Pay attention on the consistency of the dough. It will be soft and smooth and a little sticky and wet too.
5. Divide the dough into 3 bowl. I do recommend using a weighing scale because the consistency is very important for piping or spritz dough.
6. For the second and third bowl, add in the green tea and cocoa powder respectively. You may also add green and brown food colouring into respective dough colour to make them more vibrant. This is definitely optional.
7. Transfer the doughs into a piping bag respectively. Double up the piping bag if yours is thin like mine. A thin piping bag will cause breaking of the bag. Also it will ease your piping.
8. Bake in preheated oven at 170°C/340°F for about 15-17 min. For 15min, the cookies might be softer than 17min bake, so it really depending on how crispy you desire your cookies to be.
9. Let it cool completely.
10. Melt some milk chocolate and white chocolate for the side deco. Dip one side of the cookies and sprinkle with some colourful sprinkles.
11. Cookies are ready to serve.
