How to Make Snickers Surprise Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
