I have multiple friends who would happily confess their favorite cookies as being snickerdoodles. I have another friend who was once baked a batch and was VERY unhappy to realize they did not include Snickers bars in them. I mean talk about false advertising... they are called snickerdoodles why on earth WOULDN'T they have Snickers in them??? And thus this has lead us to "Snicker"doodles... yup, take a normal snickerdoodle, roll it in cinnamon and sugar like usual, then jab a hunk of Snickers bar into the middle... Oh and my version of these bad boys has no butter, and uses whole wheat flour... and they taste YUM!

"Snicker"doodles
1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup splenda blend or 1 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1 tablespoon corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 large egg
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 Snickers bars
Cooking spray

Preheat oven to 375°.

Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar, stirring with a whisk.

Combine 1/2 cup splenda blend or 1 cup of sugar and apple sauce in a large bowl, and beat until well blended. Add the corn syrup, vanilla, and egg; beat well. Gradually add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture, beating just until combined.

Combine 3 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon, stirring with a whisk.

With moist hands, shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in sugar mixture. Place balls 2 inches apart onto baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Flatten balls by jabbing a hunk of snickers into the center of each cookie. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes (cookies will be slightly soft). Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes. Remove cookies from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
