Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookie Bars

Ingredients

  •  Canola oil for greasing pan
  • 1 pkg (16 oz/402 g) peanut butter sandwich cookies (about 30 cookies, See Cook’s Tip)
  • 1 pkg (18-19 oz/450 g) fudge brownie mix
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) water
  • 2/3 cup (150 mL) canola oil
  • 3   eggs
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) dry roasted peanuts
  • 1 pkg (12 oz/350 g) semi-sweet chocolate morsels (2 cups/500 mL)
  •  

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush Large Bar Pan with oil using Chef’s Silicone Basting Brush. Arrange 30 cookies in rows of 3 x 10 over bottom of pan.
     

  2. In Classic Batter Bowl, combine brownie mix, water, oil and eggs; mix well with Small Mix ‘N Scraper®

  3. Pour batter evenly over cookies in pan; spread with Small Mix ‘N Scraper® to cover surface of cookies as much as possible. (Don’t worry if there are a few dry spots; the batter will fill in during baking.) 

  4. Bake 18-20 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in brownie portion comes out clean.
     

  5. Meanwhile, process peanuts in Manual Food Processor until coarsely chopped.  

  6. Remove pan from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack. Immediately sprinkle chocolate morsels evenly over brownie; let stand about 3 minutes or until morsels begin to melt. Spread chocolate evenly using clean Small Mix ‘N Scraper®; sprinkle with peanuts. 

  7. Cut into 48 squares using Pizza Cutter; serve warm with Mini-Serving Spatula

Cook's Tips:

 For best results, use peanut-shaped sandwich cookies. Other round sandwich cookies can be used, however, because they are thicker, the cookies may show through the batter after baking.
