These cookies and cream bars were a huge hit!  Biting into one of these is like eating cookies and cream ice cream, just in a solid cookie form.

Cookies and Cream Cookie Bars

I don’t want to make a regular cookie again.  These are just so good it is ridiculous.  A little too good if you eat more than 4 at a time, you might get sick.  I know from experience.

My little suss chef loves helping make these because I always let her have the ‘left over’ cookies.  She is especially good at breaking them up with the rolling pin.

After she breaks up the cookies and cream candy bars, licking fingers is permitted.  It definitely encourages her to cook with me more!  Add more candy bars if you want, (maybe some to the top right before you take it out of the oven), but don’t add to many Oreos because it makes them dry and crumbly.  I was overly zealous with the Oreos one time.  I mean, who can resist?

They take a little longer to bake than regular cookies, but you could try a bigger pan to cut the time in half.

Next thing you know, my kids wake up in the morning and the bars are all gone!  Who did that?!  I hate looking into their sad eyes and telling them that DAD ate all of them.
