Ingredients

For the Cookie Base:
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar packed
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 15 Oreos crushed
  • 1 ½ cup red and green M&M's or chocolate chips
For the Topping:
  • 1 can 14 ounce sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 12 ounce Ghirardelli white chocolate wafers
  • 12 peppermint candy canes crushed

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Beat butter and sugars until creamy, using a mixer. Add in salt, eggs and vanilla. Slowly add flour, baking soda and cocoa, until combined completely. Fold in crushed Oreos and M&M's (batter will be thick).
  2. Press into a parchment paper lined 15x10x1 baking sheet. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 15- 20 minutes, until soft in center and cooked on outside (adjust according to own oven). Remove from oven (will set while cooling).
  3. While baking, heat condensed milk and butter in a small saucepan on medium heat. Stirring constantly with a whisk, add white chocolate to warm milk mixture. Remove from heat and stir until smooth (about 2 minutes).
  4. Pour over cooked cookie bars and sprinkle immediately with crushed candy canes. Allow to set (about 30 minutes). Cut and enjoy!

Notes

  • Oreos- any variety works great here, original, Christmas, or mint!
  • M&M's- you can swap these out for holiday chocolate chips, or semi-sweet chocolate chips too.
  • Cocoa powder- unsweetened cocoa powder is what works here, dark chocolate is best!
