No one will guess these sweet treats with the candy bar center start with store-bought dough. Roll them in colored sugar…or just dip the tops for even faster assembly. Instead of using miniature candy bars, slice regular size Snickers candy bars into 1-inch pieces for the centers. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

I just made these and I must say it was just about a failure. I'm not sure what went on, but they flattened out and the candy oozed. I was not impressed, but they did taste good however. I doubt I make them again,but I would like to know what I did wrong.

I would only make them again because my kid's loved them. I found them lacking in flavor and didn't like the texture.

Made this for Christmas and used Pilsbury's Peppermint Sugar Cookie refrigerated dough for the holidays. They were a big hit with my family. Used different types of candy bars and cut them in half. The cookies flattened out, yet no candy leaked out. Will definitely be making these again.

I made the cookies again with almond joy and reese's cups. I used self rising flour again. I think that may help the candy from oozing because it didn't. I liked the reese's cup ones the best. I swirled hershey's chocolate syrup on them while they were still warm! They were pretty tasty!

I might try making these with malted balls (whoppers) and packaged sugar cookie dough. If they fall flat and the candy melts I'll let you know.

Basically these were blobs of dough with melted candy oozing out of them. They looked nothing like the picture. Tried using a different oven rack and added more cooking time. No luck. Tasted good, but I wouldn't serve them to anyone.
