There are cookies… and then there are cookie bars.
Cookie bars are what you make when you want the comfort of chocolate chip cookies but refuse to stand at the oven scooping dough for 40 minutes.
And when you throw Reese’s Pieces into the mix? Now we’re talking sweet, salty, chocolatey chaos — in the best way.
These bars are soft in the center, golden at the edges, loaded with melty chocolate chips, and studded with crunchy peanut butter candy shells that give you that nostalgic, movie-theater bite.
Let’s build them.
