\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 10 1\/4-ounce bag (about 16 bars) mini candy bars (such as Snickers)
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 2 1\/4 cups all-purpose flour
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 teaspoon baking soda
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 teaspoon salt
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 3\/4 cups sugar
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 3\/4 cups packed brown sugar

\nPreheat oven to 375 F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and coat the paper with cooking spray.

\nAdd the flour mixture in two batches, mixing between additions. Mix in the chopped candy bars.
\nUse spoons or an ice cream scoop to drop rounded 1- or 2-tablespoon balls of dough on the prepared baking sheet about 3 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until just lightly browned at the edges.
\nLet the cookies cool on the pans 4 minutes, then use a spatula to transfer them to a rack to cool completely. Depending on the type of candy bars used, the cookies can be very sticky while warm. You may need to clean the spatula between cookies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
