Reese's & Milk Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 5 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 tablespoons almond milk milk, cream or water will also do
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips if you want it not as sweet
- 1 cup Mini Reese Cups
- *Extra milk chocolate chips and mini Reese Cups for top of cookie bars for great looking bars!
Instructions
- Take an 8x8 or 9x9 pan, and spray with a nonstick spray. (For thicker 8x8 and thinner 9x9)
- Mix cake mix, salt and wet ingredients just until combined. (don't over mix).
- Add chocolate chips and Mini Reese Cups and fold in until just combined.
- Pour batter into the pan and smooth out with an angled spatula that has been sprayed with a non-stick spray.
- Barely press some chocolate chips and Reese Cups into the top of the cookie, the cookie will rise, so you don't want to push them deep into the cookie batter.

- Allow to cool completely on cooling rack before cutting.

I'd like to try using peanut butter instead of butter - would it be the same amount?
