Sat, 30 September 2023

INGREDIENTS:
225g butter, melted
175g granulated sugar
225g light muscovado sugar
2 large eggs
15mls pure vanilla extract
3g baking soda (1 teaspoon)
Less than one g salt (1/2 teaspoon)
575g self-raising flour
150g chocolate chips
180g unwrapped miniature Peanut Butter Cups (2 bags)
397g sweetened condensed milk (1 can)
60g creamy peanut butter

METHOD:
1). Preheat the oven to 160°C. Line a 9x13” baking pan with foil and spray with cooking spray
for easy removal.
2). Stir together melted butter with both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing completely.
3). Combine the three dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add this to your egg mixture and
combine. Stir in chocolate chips.
4). Press HALF the cookie dough in the prepared pan. Top it with peanut butter cups.
5). To make your simple glaze, pour the sweetened condensed milk into a small bowl and add
the peanut butter. Stir until smooth.
6). Pour this glaze over the peanut butter cups, then break up the remaining cookie dough and
place on top of the glaze. Press with your hands to flatten.
7). Bake for about 35-40 minutes until the tops of the bars just start to get golden brown. Cool
completely before slicing into bars.
