Cookie Dough Bites

Just the sound of the words "cookie dough" sends my thoughts to sweet, delicious, chocolately goodness. These cookie dough bites deliver on each of those words. They're extremely easy to make, require no actual cooking, and everyone loves them. That last part may or may not be a good thing... Indulge a little this weekend and make these! I know it's time to be working on our "spring break bods," but we can reward ourselves a little for how well we ate this week right? Right.


Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl (I used my stand mixer), mix together butter and brown sugar for about 3 minutes until fluffy. Add vanilla and beat until combined. 
  2. Turn the mixer to low and alternate between adding flour and condensed milk until combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips. 
  3. Press the cookie dough into an 8 x 8 pan lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. 
  4. To make the chocolate layer on top, combine peanut butter and milk chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl. Stir every 30 seconds until smooth. 
  5. Pour and spread over the chilled dough and chill for 1 hour until firm. Cut into bite sized pieces, it's very sweet!
