Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookie Bars
Ingredients:
- 2 cups pretzels, crushed
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts optional
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions:
Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan
Crush the pretzels and mix them with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar in a bowl
To make the pretzel crust, press this mixture into the bottom of the baking pan that has been prepared
The pretzel crust should be baked in a hot oven for 10 minutes
Take it out of the oven and let it cool down a bit
Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a different bowl
When the butter is soft, add the brown sugar and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar to a different, larger bowl
Beat the mixture until it is creamy and smooth
Mix the egg and vanilla extract into the butter and sugar until everything is well mixed together
Slowly add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture and mix just until everything is combined
Add one cup of chocolate chips and mix them in
To make the cookie dough even, spread it out over the pretzel crust in the baking pan
If you stick a toothpick into the middle and it comes out with a few moist crumbs, the bread is done
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes
After taking the cookie bars out of the oven, let them cool all the way down on a wire rack in the pan
Melt the last few chocolate chips and drizzle them over the cookie bars once they are cool
You can add chopped nuts to the melted chocolate drizzle if you want to
Before cutting the bars into squares, let the chocolate drizzle set
Serve and have fun!
