send me to the milky way cookies


I made these this weekend and they went pretty quickly. They are great if you have leftover Halloween candy, or if you are like me, and it is impossible to keep candy in the home for more than a day, go buy some extra.

INGREDIENTS:
2 sticks softened butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 3/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
35 mini milky way and 3 musketeer candy bars, coarsely chopped

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a stand or electric mixer, cream the butter and sugars. Beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined, scraping edges with a spatula. In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly add wet ingredients along with the chopped candy bars.
2. With a medium cookie scoop, scoop onto a silpat or parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until cooked to your preference. Let cool for 5 minutes on baking sheet, then transfer to cooking rack.
