I've never used the pre-made cookie dough but I can't imagine it being much different. Here's the recipe that I have:

2 sticks butter (softened)
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
3.5 cups all purpose flour (sifted)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pkg (13 oz.) Snickers Miniatures
1 pkg (11 oz) Dove Milk or Dark Chocolate (optional)

1. Combine the butter, peanut butter, and sugars using a mixer on a medium to low speed until light and fluffy.
2. Slowly add eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combined. Then mix in flour, salt and baking soda.
3. Cover and chill for 2-3 hrs.
4. Unwrap all Snickers minis
5. Remove dough from fridge. Divide into 1 tablespoon pieces and flatten.
6. Place a Snickers in the center of each piece of dough
7. Form the dough into a ball around each Snickers
8. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 325 F for 10-12 minutes. (Baking time and temperature may need to be adjusted if using more then 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie)
9. Let cookies cool on baking rack or wax paper. (Holiday Hint: Spruce up Santa's surprise by drizzling melted Dove chocolate over the top of each cookie!)

(and yes that was word for word my recipe lol) I've never actually sifted my flour and it turned out fine. Hope this helps a little bit
