These copycat Nutty Buddy Bars are free of processed ingredients and pretty close to those Little Debbie ones I used to eat as a kid. They're a perfect little treat for when you're craving something for dessert.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 4

24 Triscuit (or similar) crackers
1/2 cup peanut butter (we buy natural peanut butter made with 1 ingredient, peanuts!)
1 1/4 cups chocolate chips
1/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Spread peanut butter on top of each cracker then double them up (one on top of another) to make 12 double-decker stacks.
  • In a small pot over very low heat, melt the chocolate chips and heavy cream together. Continuously stir until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. You can also use a double boiler, but if you keep a close eye and stir frequently, I don't think it's necessary.
  • Line a baking sheet or cutting board with parchment or wax paper. One by one dip each cracker stack in the melted chocolate and spoon over top. Take out of the chocolate, scrape the excess off the bottom (with the spoon), and place on the prepared sheet. Repeat until done.
  • Place in the entire thing in the freezer until chocolate sets, 1 to 2 hours, and serve. Keep cold.

OATMEAL CREME PIE COOKIE BARS (LITTLE DEBBIE COPYCAT)



Oatmeal Creme Pie Cookie Bars (Little Debbie Copycat) image

Rather than go to the fussiness of making sandwich cookies to recreate the classic Little Debbie cookies, I made bars that taste better than the original. Bars are so much faster and easier than cookies since there's no dough to chill and nothing individual to roll. The bars are soft, very chewy, not at all cakey, and perfectly dense. Use quick-cook oats rather than old-fashioned for the perfect amount of chewiness. There's molasses and cinnamon for extra depth of flavor and the frosting is truly the icing on this cake and makes the bars taste authentic. You can halve the frosting portion if you're not a huge frosting person. It's buttercream frosting spiked with a jar of marshmallow creme and makes the bars taste truly authentic. It's sweet, decadent, soft, fluffy, sticky, rich, and you'll want to eat it by the spoonful.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons medium, dark, or full-bodied molasses
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup instant oats (not old-fashioned or whole-rolled)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
one 7-ounce jar marshmallow creme
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (cuts some of the sweetness)

Steps:

  • Bars - Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
  • Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don't scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, molasses, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, and whisk until smooth.
  • Add the oats and stir to combine.
  • Add the flour and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
  • Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula. Bake for about 24 to 25 minutes, or until done. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Place pan on top of a wire rack to cool completely before frosting. Don't frost warm bars or the frosting will melt.
  • Frosting - To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large bowl and electric hand mixer), add the butter, confectioners' sugar, and beat on medium-high speed (start on low so you don't spray sugar everywhere) until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the marshmallow creme, salt, and beat on medium-high speed until well combined, about 1 minute.
  • Turn frosting out over bars and lightly smooth it with a spatula or offset knife. Bars will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 5 days. I'm comfortable storing buttercream-style frosting at room temp but if you're not, refrigerate the bars noting they'll be more prone to drying out in the fridge.
