We use my grandmother’s recipe and make a giant batch of cookies every year for our family’s camping trip. However, one year we simply ran out of time for our baking plans.
Monster Cookie Bars
I adjusted the recipe slightly and pressed the cookie dough into the bottom of a large baking sheet. In less time than it would have taken to bake a single tray of cookies, I had these bars cooling on the counter.
Easy as can be and the bars were a huge hit with everyone that tried them. I was expecting a fun treat to snack on over the weekend, but these bars came close to trumping the original Monster Cookies. Slightly more gooey than the cookies and still crisp on top and bottom, this is one of the best bar cookies I’ve ever tasted.
Bar Cookie Recipes
If you’ve been hanging out with me for long at all, you know my long for EASY desserts. Dessert Bars are a terrific way to feed a crowd. Almond Joy Brownies are an impressive dessert when topped with Homemade Ice Cream and Hot Fudge Sauce. Cinnamon Pecan Shortbread Bars are perfect with a cup of coffee and I love having them stashed in the freezer. These Frosted Sugar Cookie Bars by Tastes of Lizzy T look amazing as well.
