Raspberry Nutter Butter Bars image

Reminiscent of a classic, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich minus the bread, these bars hit the spot with a little youthful nostalgia. A glass of cold milk is a great accompaniment. One 16-ounce package of Nutter Butter sandwich cookies pulsed in a food processor makes 4 cups of crumbs, which is exactly enough for one recipe.

NUTTER BUTTER COOKIE BARS



Nutter Butter Cookie Bars image

Provided by Six Sisters Stuff

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
1 cup milk chocolate chips
16 Nutter Butter Cookies (divided and broken into pieces)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan with non stick cooking spray.
  • Cream brown sugar and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer.
  • Add eggs and vanilla and beat until combined.
  • Add baking powder, salt, and flour and mix it all together.
  • Mix in your chocolate chips then slowly mix in 12 crushed Nutter Butter Cookies.
  • Press into prepared pan (dough is sticky, spray your hands with cooking spray to avoid it sticking to your hands).
  • Sprinkle the 4 crushed nutter butters over the top.
  • Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes. Be careful not to overcook - the middle might be a little gooey.
  • Cool completely before slicing into squares.

Tips:

  • Soften the butter: Make sure the butter is at room temperature before creaming it with the sugar. This will help the cookies bake evenly and prevent them from being too dense.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop will help you get evenly sized cookies. This will help them bake evenly.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

These nutter butter cookie bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for any occasion, and they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. With their creamy peanut butter filling and crunchy cookie crust, these bars are a perfect balance of flavors and textures.
