No scooping required, these brown butter cookie bars are loaded with dark chocolate chunks to make an insanely delicious dessert combo.
I don’t know why it has taken me so long to make cookies in bar form. You guys they are SO easy. No scooping, no rolling. You don’t need to chill the dough. They don’t run, burn around the edges or bottoms, and are pretty much the only way I want to bake cookies from here on out.
And that browned butter, it is the best thing ever. seriously. brown your butter people, and then add that browned butter to some dark chocolate chunk cookie dough.
This year, along with meal prep on Sunday afternoons, I have also started baking a batch or two of cookies or brownies and a pan of granola bars. That way the kids always have a snack for after school and in lunch boxes. not that I want them eating a ton of sweets, but I figure homemade is better than the junk they can buy at school.
