No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bars

To be honest I'm not a huge fan of cookie dough anything but these no bake bars are one of the BEST cookie dough treats I have EVER had. My willpower went out the window today when I made these... ENJOY!!

1/2 c. unsalted butter, softened

3/4 c. brown sugar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

2 c. all purpose flour

1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

1 &1/2 c. chocolate chips

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

Line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, mix together butter and brown sugar until it is fluffy. Add vanilla and mix until combined.

With your mixer on low, alternate the flour and the sweetened condensed milk until combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips.

Press the cookie dough into the bottom of the 8×8 pan. Dough is kind of sticky so lightly flour your hands if needed.

Cover your bars with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight until firm; if you're in a hurry you can speed this process up by putting in the freezer for about an hour.

To make the topping, combine the peanut butter and ½ cup chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. Stir every 30 seconds until smooth. Pour and spread over the top of the chilled dough and chill at least for 1 hour until firm.
