Monster Cookie Bars

Recipe Courtesy - @Justataste

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 1/2 cups Old Fashioned oats
  • 1 cup M&Ms
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS

Pre-heat the oven to 175C and line a 13x9-inch metal baking pan with greased parchment paper with a 2-inch overhang on each short side of the pan.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the sugar, brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Add the eggs to the bowl, one at a time, beating between each addition then add the the peanut butter, vanilla extract, baking soda and salt and mix until well combined.

Add the oats and mix just until combined. Stir in the M&Ms and chocolate chips.

Transfer the cookie dough into the prepared pan, pressing it into an even layer. Bake for about 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. (See Kelly's Notes.) Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cookie to cool in the pan for 20 minutes. Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the cookie out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Slice the cookie into 24 bars and serve.

NOTE:

For chewier, softer cookie bars, underbake the cookie and allow it to cool in the pan for 30 to 45 minutes before slicing and serving.


If you are using a glass 13x9-inch baking pan, you may need to decrease the oven temperature to 175°C based on how the heat circulates in your oven.

Almond and Honey Brittle Ingredients 1/4 cup almond oil 4 cups sliced blanched almonds 2 cups sugar 1 cup honey 1/4 cup water Method Preheat the oven to 204C. Grease a baking sheet with the almond oil. Place the almonds on a separate baking sheet and toast them in the oven until light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside. In a medium, very heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, honey, and water and cook over medium-high heat until the sugar liquefies, then turns light golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. It should register 310 degrees Fahrenheit on a candy thermometer; this is referred to as the “hard-crack” stage. Do not stir, but brush the sugar crystals off the inside of the pan with a wet pastry brush as necessary.
