With creamy, rich dough and a hint of chocolate chips, these bars are the perfect snack or dessert for any occasion. They’re safe to eat raw, thanks to the heat-treated flour, and they come together in just minutes, making them an ideal treat for those who love cookie dough without the fuss of baking.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (heat-treated or microwave for 12 minutes to kill any bacteria)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk (or dairy-free milk)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips (or regular chocolate chips, chopped)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the flour: If you’re using regular flour, heat it in the microwave for 1-2 minutes on high to kill any bacteria. You can also bake it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes. Let it cool before using.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until smooth and the sugar is mostly dissolved.
  3. Add the flour: Slowly add the flour to the wet ingredients, mixing until the dough begins to form. It should be thick but soft. If the dough feels too dry, add a little more milk, a tablespoon at a time.
  4. Stir in chocolate chips: Once the dough is fully mixed, fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  5. Press into pan: Line an 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Press the cookie dough mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly to the edges.
  6. Chill: Refrigerate the bars for at least 1-2 hours, or until they are firm and set.
  7. Serve: Once chilled, remove the bars from the pan, cut them into squares, and serve.

Notes

  • For extra texture: Add a handful of chopped nuts or additional mix-ins like sprinkles, mini M&Ms, or toffee bits.
  • Storage: Store these bars in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
  • Dairy-free option: Use dairy-free butter and plant-based milk to make these bars dairy-free.
