Loaded REESE'S Cookie Bars image

Peanut butter-chocolate candy lovers, waste no time in making these bars for yourself and anyone else who loves that classic flavor combination. These fun bars start with a base of Betty Crocker™ chocolate chip cookie mix that gets an extra chocolaty kick of HERSHEY'S cocoa, plus peanut butter chips and colored sprinkles. After that gets spread into a pan, the fun really starts: REESE'S PIECES candy and peanut butter-filled REESE'S baking cups are added on top before baking. Once they're out of the oven, a drizzle of melted peanut butter chips finishes these irresistibly fun and indulgent bars.

These cookie bars were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the peanut butter filling was too thin. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
