No other changes. They were delish and hubby loved them. Took them out of the oven at 10pm and 1/3 of pan was gone by 12midnite. Wonderful recipe, Megan!!!

Not kidding. Sometimes once a week! The kids and their friends request these for snacks all the time. The teachers at my kids’ school can’t wait for me to bring these in for events. FYI, For my oven, 18 minutes is the perfect time. I let them cool about 10 minutes before turning them out on a large cutting board and then cut into squares before they completely cool. After cooling, I freeze them in baggies (or they would disappear the same day).

Used a 9×13 pan, baked 25 min. They came out great. Way better than oatmeal cookies…. I will definitely be making them again.
Thanks so much…..

I winged it and used 1/2 c applesauce in place of 1 of the sticks of butter. I baked them in a 10×15 pan as suggested, I mixed very minimal trying to get the absolute best texture. At 20 minutes they were still pudding like in the middle. Five minutes later I pulled them out so as not to overbake since the edges were browning. After 20 minutes I tried cutting into these and they are crumbly and nothing sticks together. Its literally just a pile of crumbs trying to get a ‘bar’ out of the pan. Very bad. The only other thing I can think is that I use organic butter which tends to not cream as well as traditional butter. It leaves the batter full of butter bits VS blending. Bummer ;(

Applesauce, coconut oil, anything…I want to make them and have a soft and chewy delish desert for tomorrow. Suggestions? Thanks in advance!

So that’s what I watched for….. And they are absolutely delicious. I added a touch of cinnamon and I think next time I will even had a cup of chopped nuts along with the chocolate chips.!! Finally a great recipe for old fashioned bar cookies.!!!!!!! We are having some with our coffee this morning.!!!!! Wonderful.!!!!
