Super Easy Chocolate Bars image

From a Better Homes & Gardens booklet titled 20 Most-Requested Recipes - Cookies from 2006. These were definitely super easy to prepare and are pretty tasty too. I cut them into rounds with various sizes of biscuit cutters for a holiday cookie tray. Also easy to cut as the filling is fairly firm.

Time 50m

Yield 25 bars, 25 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup butter, softened (I used unsalted)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup semisweet chocolate piece
1/2 cup walnuts or 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • For CRUST, in large bowl, beat Butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add Sugar and Salt; beat until combined.
  • Add Flour; beat on low speed until combined. Press two-thirds of the crust mixture into the bottom of an ungreased 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
  • For FILLING, in medium saucepan, combine Sweetened Condensed Milk and Chocolate Chips. Cook and stir over low heat until chocolate is melted. Remove from heat; stir in Nuts and Vanilla.
  • Spread filling over unbaked crust. Sprinkle with remaining crust mixture.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden. Cool in pan on wire rack. Cut into bars.
  • NOTE (as written in booklet): To cut professional-looking bars with nice even sides, let the baked mixture cool completely so the block has time to set up. For softer bars, refrigerate the baked block for a short time before cutting.
