- Yields:
-
40 Individual cookie popsickles
- Serves:
- 40
ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1⁄2 cup butter, softened
- 1⁄2 cup shortening
- 1 1⁄2 cups white sugar
- 1⁄2 cup brown sugar
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1⁄4 cups flour
- 40 large wooden popsickle sticks
- 40 Milky Way miniature candy bars, unwrapped
- assorted christmas candy sprinkles or colored sugar sprinkle
directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- In large mixing bowl, cream together peanut butter, butter and shortening at medium-high speed. Add both sugars and baking soda & beat well. Add eggs and vanilla extract, also beating well. Gradually beat in flour until incorporated. Chill dough for 1 hour.
- While dough is chilling, insert each popsickle stick into a candy bar.
- After dough has chilled, form 2 Tbl. dough around each candy bar, shaping it into a ball - make sure the candy bar is completely covered.
- Place your assorted sprinkles onto low-rimmed plates. Roll each dough ball into the sprinkles, covering as much as possible.
- Place parchment paper on several cookie sheet pans. Place the "cookie popsickles" 2 1/2 inches apart on the cookie sheet. I find it is best to only place 5 on a sheet at a time. Please allow sheet pans to cool before placing another batch on them.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then, using spatula, gently remove the cookie from the pan and place on wire rack to finish cooling. Once completely cooled, cookies should be set and will not fall off of popsickle stick.

I'm a "crazy in love with my hubby", 40-something gal who loves to cook and spend time with my family - especially my grand-daughter Ariel. I work full time in the transporation industry and I often make baked goodies to share with my office co-workers. I also enjoy searching for and trying new recipes. I love watching Food Network - it's on almost 24/7!
