Reeses Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars Recipes

REESES STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on all sides so they can easily be lifted out after baking. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar together. Whisk in the egg and egg yolk + the vanilla extract. Scrape the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips. Transfer half of the dough to the prepared pan, and press into an even layer. Place the Reeses peanut butter cups on top of the dough in rows of four. Place spoonfuls of the rest of the chocolate chip cookie dough on top, covering as much of the PB cups as possible. If you have more chocolate chips, sprinkle a few more on the top (decorative). Bake 30 to 35 minutes, until golden brown. Cool completely. Lift out of the pan, cut and serve.
