Chocolate chip OREO cookie bars

posted by Jamielyn on July 11, 2013

I have quite the treat for you today! Chocolate chip OREO cookie bars. We were doing our usual Sunday baking this past week and planned to make Congo Bars. After sifting through the pantry, to my surprise we only had half a cup of chocolate chips. WHAT?!

Well, I looked around some more and I was able to round up some OREO’s and white chocolate chips and decided I would give it a go. It was the perfect combo. These turned out amazing! We topped these bad boys with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and we were all in heaven. Love Sundays so much!

Chocolate chip oreo cookie bars

Ingredients:

2 cups brown sugar
2/3 cup salted butter (softened)
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cup flour
2 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
12 OREO cookies (crushed)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

Optional: Top with 2 extra OREO cookies and a 1/4 cup white chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl with a mixer. Add in eggs and vanilla and stir until combined. Mix the baking powder and salt with 1 cup of flour. Pour into the butter mixture and stir in the rest of the flour. Fold in OREO's and chocolate chips.
2. Line a 13x9 with foil and press dough into pan with flour on your hands. Place in oven and bake for 25-35 minutes on until lightly browned. Oven temps will vary. Test with a tooth pick.
3. If you would like you may take the bars out 15 minutes in and top with OREO's and white chocolate chips.
4. Allow bars to cool and enjoy with a cold glass of milk!

My college cafeteria used to make something like these. They only had them about every other week. Since they were “rare” I ate 3-4 at a time. I still frequent alumni events catered by the same people and always squeal if they have these. I plan on trying these as soon as Oreos make it to my kitchen! :) I think the brown sugar will make them super yummy!

How many does this make

  It makes a 9×13 pan…the number of cookie bars depends on how big you cut them! :)

Hello, I just made these and although the recipe worked very well, the taste did not. It was just bland. I see there is no white sugar and I am very dissapointed because they would of came out amazing if they had white sugar.

  Hi Betty! I’m sorry these didn’t turn out how you expected Betty! These are a twist on my Congo Bars recipe and don’t have sugar, but they have always come out with a lot of flavor just like chocolate chip cookies. I am wondering if an ingredient was missing maybe? I’m sorry again!

Will it be ok to use a 13×9 glass baking dish ?

  Yes, you can definitely use a 13×9 glass baking dish! :)

I’ve never made something where I line the pan with foil…I’m
Scared I’m going to ruin it and it will stick. Can I just use a disposable foil pan or something?

  Hi Jasmine! You don’t have to line the pan with foil, it just makes it easier to pop them out of the pan and a really quick clean up! :)

Looks delicious thanx for sharing this recipe< but I have a question, did you use light brown sugar???? and can I substitute it with light muscovado?

  Yes, I used light brown sugar. I have never tried that substitute before, but I think it would change the texture and flavor.

I made these cookies and thought they were incredibly, surprisingly bland! Ended up giving them away/throwing them out. There was no distinct flavor ….. just over-the-top sweet. On a scale of 0 to 10 (with 10 being the highest) these get a 2.
