Gooey Oreo Cookie Bars

Oh! My! Heavens! These were a fabulous find!! I saw them posted on Facebook somewhere and the link took me to Crazy For Crust.

INGREDIENTS:

1/3 cup Hershey's Special Dark cocoa powder (regular works too but go ahead for the full flavor)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 large egg
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
6 Oreo cookies, chopped
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9x9 square pan with parchment paper or foil and cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa, baking soda, salt and flour. Set aside.

In a mixer, cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and mix until smooth.

Add in dry ingredients a little at a time.

Mix until combined.

Press half the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.

Sprinkle with chips.

Sprinkle with chopped Oreos.

Drizzle sweetened condensed milk evenly over top.

Drop remaining dough by spoonfuls over the top and spread with your fingers. Some filling may leak through but that's okay! Try to seal the edges as much as you can.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until the top looks dry instead of shiny. Consider moving away instead of cleaning up the mess you made. Realize that it would mean you would not get to eat any of these cookie bars and decide to stay after all.

Cool completely before cutting into bars. Try to not eat them all...go ahead, I dare you!
