Chocolate Cookie Squares
A buttery cookie base, a creamy center of sweetened condensed milk, and a decadent topping of melted milk chocolate chips.
Ingredients
Bottom Layer
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 3/4 cup flour
Middle Layer
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Top Layer
- 1 bag milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Mix together that cup of butter, brown sugar, and flour.
- Press in an 8 x 8 pan.
- Pop it in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
- Once done, set aside to cool a bit while you make the next layer.
- In a medium-sized saucepan dump the can of condensed milk into it. Add the 1/4 cup of butter and tsp of vanilla. Whisk together on medium heat for about 6 minutes. Make sure to stir it frequently so it doesn't burn.
- Pour over the bottom layer of your cookie Squares. Spread around with a spatula so that the first layer is completely covered with the condensed milk mixture.
- Put it back in the oven and bake for 17-18 minutes.
- Take it out and sprinkle the chocolate chips over it evenly. Let it sit for 5 minutes. After five minutes spread the chocolate evenly across the cookie bars with a spatula.
- Let them cool completely before cutting into them. I prefer to put them in the fridge once they cool to help firm them up.
