Chocolate Chip Magic Bars Recipe

In my old age I have decided that there are some things I can do without.

By that I mean I get more confident in my likes and dislikes.

Here are some things that “in my opinion” have run their course:

  • The cha-cha slide…actually any party-type dance that has the word “slide” in it….I’m not “slide” exclusive.  It’s time to call it a day.  No more, please.  It’s possible I don’t like these dances because I have absolutely zero coordination and I feel like masses of people are all mocking me in perfect rhythm…Who knows.
  • People saying that their high heels are “super comfortable”.  No, they’re not.  I have worn high heels and they are only comfortable while you’re sitting.  Stop trying to make me think that you wear them for any other reason than to make your legs looks skinnier.
  • Angelina Jolie.  Put your leg away please.
  • Tattoos of your child’s face.  Please just hear me out on this one…I am not judging your child, or even your right to have a tattoo.  Alls I am saying is that however great a tattoo artist you might go to, they can’t control future sagging.  Your sweet child’s face can go from angelic to Crypt Keeper in a matter of just a few years.  I mean it’s like one of those creepy computer programs that will show you what you will look like when you age. Your kid doesn’t need a constant reminder of what they will look like when they’re 80.  I’m really looking out for your child here.  And beyond the Crypt Keeper time machine your tattoo will most likely produce, there there is a solid chance that your child’s inked eyes will look cross-eyed.  I have seen this on numerous occasions.
  • Being “zany”.  The word, the action, just all of it.
  • Zombies.  They are fiction.  There will not be a Zombie Apocalypse.  Stop trying to figure out how you will survive one.  Maybe start planning for the real end of the world in December.  Mayans trump Zombies any day.

 

I am quite confident I will get emails from some telling me how they love the cha-cha slide and do it, like all the time everyday of the week, or have a gorgeous child tattoo on their arm that they like  to wear cut-off T-Shirts to show off.  Which is totally cool.  I say if there weren’t you in the world I wouldn’t have anyone to make fun of.  We’re like a team.  High five.

 

So to try and get back into your good graces I’ll make cookies for you.  Although I know Angelina Jolie doesn’t eat cookies and really there won’t be anyone out there defending her, but hey…cookies make everything better…especially magical ones.

 

These are a take on the Magic Bar that has been around for ages.

But you don’t really have to make any of the parts…it’s just an “open package and combine” kind of recipe.  I feel like I am dangerously close to “Semi-Homemade” territory.  It’s a slippery slope.

How to Make These Delicious Cookie Bars

You could certainly make your own chocolate chip cookie dough, but really…for these bars, it’s not necessary.

Roll it out…

Press it into your 9×13 pan and bake it for a few minutes.

Then get to layering…chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, toffee bits and coconut…

Then pour a whole can of sweetened condensed milk all over top.

Bake it up until it’s golden and delicious.

You’ll be happy you did.

  1. I have half a can of condensed milk left and have been pondering over whether to use it in homemade ice cream or some kind of cookie bar. Still on the fence, but I like the idea of using refrigerated cookie dough. I was thinking of trying it with Ritz crackers.

  2. It’s like we are sharing the same brain, although I’d like to add LMAO to the list. Thank you for bringing laughter and cookies to my day!

  3. Genius idea! I recently amped up the classic magic bar too, with bacon! Abracadabra Bars, and they were amaazing!

  4. I feel the emptiness in my part when I see that chocolate chip magic bars… I can’t wait to taste it..

  5. Can I add the word ” Awsome” into the over it list ?
    If everything is awsome, logic dictates then nothing is awsome any longer. For the love of ( insert deity of choice here ) , find another word to use..there are a lot of them out there.

    Love your blog.
