Creamy, indulgent, and impossible to resist — Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bars are the ultimate no-bake treat for anyone who loves the classic cookie flavor in bar form.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the milk and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour and salt, stirring until a smooth dough forms.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Line a baking dish with parchment paper and press the cookie dough into the pan, smoothing out the top.
Refrigerate the dish for about 1 hour or until firm.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with coconut oil or butter in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the chilled cookie dough and spread evenly. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top for garnish.
Return the dish to the refrigerator for another 30 minutes or until the chocolate sets.
Slice into bars and serve chilled for the best texture!
Notes
Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. For longer storage, wrap individual bars tightly and freeze for up to 3 months.
