I feel like a bit of a one-trick pony these days.
I mean, are you sick of cookie bars yet?
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha.
What was I thinking? You guys are my peeps.
No way are you sick of cookie bars.
They’re totally delicious, totally easy and completely versatile.
Like, would a cake let you put chocolate chip cookies and pretzel nuggets in it?
Hmmm, don’t answer that. Idea logged.
Anyway, cookie bars are pretty chill.
Ooh, yuck. I can’t believe I just said that.
What I MEAN is, they are all easy-breezy-I-don’t-care-what-you-add-to-me-because-I-will-work-and-be-delicious-no-matter-what.
Phew.
So yeah. I make a lot of bar desserts.
They make me happy.
And since you ARE my peeps, I’m thinking they make you happy too.
Peanut Butter Pretzel Bars…
So I started with a log of cookie dough.
Log. Snort.
And I pressed it in a pan.
Annnd I baked the bajeezus out of it.
OK, not really. I barely baked it.
Then I put a bunch of marshmallows all over it.
If you don’t follow me on instagram look at THIS box of marshmallows I got from Jet-Puffed.
I decided I had better start using them!
Then I baked that up for a quick minute…just until the marshmallows puff up a little.
Then immediately press your peanut butter filled pretzel nuggets into the gooey-ness. I used THESE pretzel nuggets.
If you want to make it pretty melt some peanut butter chips with a bit of shortening….
And go ahead and drizzle that shizzle…
For real now.

Those are some good looking bars, my husband would go crazy for these, he loves all thing peanut butter and pretzel.
YUM! I think I’m going to have to bake today! 🙂
Wow. Thats all I have to say. Just wow.
Amazing! These look soooooo good. And I’m totally jealous of your box o’marshmallows. Two Targets and 5 grocery stores later, I still can’t find a container of marshmallow bits to make 1 stinkin’ recipe.
Mercy girl! These are absolute perfection! I made a peanut butter pretzel thingy the other day, but I want a do-over with these babies! Totally happening. 🙂
Um, when are you moving back to Texas? I feel like you need a neighbor to take these off of your hands.
Oh YUM! These contain everything good in the world.

Wow, just wow. You’re a cookie bar guru. Love these!
