Yummy Cookie Bars

Name: Yummy Cookie Bars
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 2 dozen.
Ingredients: 1 package white cake mix (regular size); 1/2 cup canola oil; 2 large eggs; 1/2 cup butter, cubed; 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips; 1/2 cup peanut butter chips; 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk

I received this recipe from a special co-worker at school, and it is always a huge success when I make them. It works great to make them a day in advance. It will allow the bars to set and be cut easier.

Ingredients

1 package white cake mix (regular size)
1/2 cup canola oil
2 large eggs
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter chips
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, oil and eggs. Press half of dough into a greased 13x9-in. baking pan.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and chips; stir until smooth. Stir in milk. Pour over crust. Drop remaining dough by teaspoonfuls over the top.
Bake until edges are golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into bars.

A hit with my kids and their friends! Very easy to make however I did not have a white cake mix so I used yellow and it was perfectly fine. I used all milk chips too because its what we prefer. I definitely recommend this recipe!

Very good and easy to make. I used all semisweet chocolate chips (my family isn't big on peanut butter), and the topping was chocolatey, rich and creamy - delicious! I also flattened small balls of the remaining dough for the top to give it a neat polka dotted look. I will be making this for an upcoming church social this weekend :)

I have made these Yummy Cookie Bars several times and everybody who has sampled them has simply raved over them. One of the best new recipes that I have tried and so very simple to make with ingredients that are always on hand. Five Star Recipe.
