I couldn't find refrigerated peanut butter cookie dough so used a Krustez peanut butter cookie mix and worked great. I also used the mini snickers bars with the mini holiday M and Ms. Excellent cookies and turned out great. I sprayed my non-stick muffin tins and had no problem getting them out of the pan. I will definitely make them again.
