Sumbitches: a second try

So, as good as they may have tasted, I was frustrated by the "hole"liness of the last try at Sumbitches when the whole candy was covered with the peanut butter cookie dough.

So this time I decided to try them as a chip style cookies.

Here they are: Sumbitches - a second try
Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, room temp
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 1/2 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
20 - 30 chocolate covered caramels, frozen and then roughly chopped into bits.

Method:
Beat the butter until creamy, 2 minutes
Add sugars and beat for another 2 minutes
Mix in the peanut butter and egg
Mix together the dry ingredients (flour, soda, powder,and salt)
Stir dry ingredients into the sugar butter mixture gradually.
Stir in chopped chocolate caramel bits
Wrap dough in plastic and chill for 3 hours
Preheat oven to 300 degrees
Shape dough into 1 1/4 half inch balls.
Place about 3 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet
Flatten with a crisscross pattern with a fork.
Bake until light brown, 13 - 15 minutes
Cool on baking sheet for one minute and then transfer to rack to completely cool.

Not sure how they will turn out as the dough is chilling right now, but I will let you know post this post!

Until the next experiment...
