MONSTER COOKIE BARS



Monster Cookie Bars image

This is the bar form of one of my favorite cookies, the monster cookie! The monster cookie originated in Michigan and contains oats, peanut butter and candy-coated chocolates, and traditionally does not have flour. I love the chewy consistency and nutty flavor from the oats and peanut butter. It's kind of like a more indulgent granola bar!

Categories     dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup unsweetened peanut butter
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted but not hot
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup roasted peanuts
1 cup chocolate coated candies, plus more for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a 9-inch square metal pan with parchment paper that comes up on two sides to give you little wings.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the oats, coconut, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, brown sugar, butter and granulated sugar until combined and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each. Add the vanilla. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the oat mixture until combined, then fold in the peanuts and chocolate-coated candies. Press into the baking pan. Press a few additional chocolate-coated candies into the top.
  • Bake until browned around the edges; begin checking for doneness at 28 minutes. Let cool in the pan completely, then carefully lift out of the pan and use a sharp serrated knife to slice into bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days.

MONSTER COOKIE BARS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Monster Cookie Bars Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by cecelia26_

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup butter, room temperature (1 1/2 sticks)
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp. salt
2 cups quick cooking oats
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup regular sized chocolate chips
1/2 to 3/4 cup m&m's (approximately 2 1/2 1.69 oz. bags)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a bar pan (10 x 15) liberally with cooking spray.* In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and brown sugar until fully incorporated and creamy. Add in sweetened condensed milk & peanut butter. Mix together until fully incorporated. With the mixer on low, add in flour, baking soda & salt until combined. Add in oats and mix until combined. Add in chocolate chips and stir until evenly distributed. Pour batter into prepared pan (if using 9 x 13 pan reserve 1 cup of the dough for cookies). Spread dough evenly. Bake for approximately 30 minutes until lightly golden brown and set in the middle. Remove pan from oven and place pan on a cooling rack. Let cool completely in the pan, then cut into bars and store in an airtight container. * You can use a 9 x 13 pan but you will need to remove about one cup of the dough and set it aside so that the bars cook more evenly-I did this and my bars were still a little underdone in the center but done on the edges. I made some individual cookies with the extra dough and baked them for 8 to 10 minutes. Even though my bars were a tad underdone they set up as they cooled and made the bars have a great texture and since there's no egg there is no worries about them possibly being underdone.
