Best 5 Reeses Peanut Butter Cookie Bar Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER CUP PEANUT BUTTER BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
• To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute.
• Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don't scramble it. Add the peanut butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
• Add the flour and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
• Add 1/2 cup chocolate chips and stir to combine.
• Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
• Evenly distribute the peanut butter cups over the surface of the batter, pushing each cup down as far as it will go.
• Evenly sprinkle the surface with additional chocolate chips, about 1 tablespoon.
• Bake for about 22 to 25 minutes, or until done. If you can find a chocolate chip-free patch to test, a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
• Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER BARS

Steps:

• Mix the crumbs and sugar (sifted is better).
• Add the melted butter and peanut butter.
• Mix well and press into a 9x13 inch pan.
• Melt the chocolate chips in microwave on 70% (about a minute 15 seconds in mine.).
• Spread chocolate over the bars.
• Refrigerate till hard, then take out about 15 minutes before you want to cut them, so the frosting won't crack.

REESE'S™ PEANUT BUTTER LAYER BARS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix cookie mix, oil, water and egg with spoon until soft dough forms. Press dough in bottom of pan. Bake 15 minutes.
• In small bowl, mix condensed milk and peanut butter. Pour evenly over baked crust, carefully spreading to edges. Sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and peanuts evenly over top. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until bubbling along edges. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 hour. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUP BARS

Steps:

• Mix butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and peanut butter. (an easy way to measure the peanut butter is to put 1 cup of water into a measuring cup, and then add enough peanut butter to it that the water reaches 2 cups).
• Press mixture into a 9x13" pan.
• Melt chocolate chips in microwave and stir until smooth (try a minute first, and then check).
• Spread chocolate carefully over peanut butter layer with a spatula. (Having one person to pour the chocolate and one to spread works well!).
• Let the chocolate cool for a while, and then cut into bars before the chocolate is completely hardened (or else the chocolate layer will just crack).
• (cooking time is cooling time, and it's a very rough estimate, I didn't keep track).

• 5. Spread evenly in the lined pan to the edges. Bake 15-20 minutes until golden. Be careful to check edges.
• 6. Let cookie bar cool.
• 7. Second Layer (Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Filling): Mix butter and graham crackers. Then add remaining filling ingredients. Mix until well blended and creamy.
