Take packaged peanut butter cookie mix – or any peanut butter cookie dough.
Take mini snickers bars – unwrap . form dough ball around it. Bake as directed.
When cool drizzle chocolate over top. Really good.
I made these for our school bake sale. They were so easy to make and a big seller!
Looks yummy and quick to make.
The recipe for funfetti cookies sounds fun & yummy, however what is the baking time & what temperature?
These were delicious- and so easy!! Had all the ingredients in my pantry and didn’t have to leave home to get my snickerdoodle fix, which was an added bonus!
My favorite are the funfetti cookies: one box of funfetti cake mix, 1/3 cup of oil, two eggs, and a jar of your favorite frosting to top them off when they cool down!
I love cake mix cookies. They are so easy to make and snickerdoodles would be a great one to try! Thanks for the recipe!

These are so quick to whip up. They taste so good, better than any other recipe I have ever tried!! They have a great texture with a lightly crunchy outside and soft inside. My husband is raving over them and wants to know when I am making more.
