Ingredients

  • one 14.3-ounce refrigerated tub Pillsbury Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
  • 9 Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups (or similar; or Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. Press three-quarters of the dough into the base of the pan to create a smooth, flat, even base layer. Reserve the remainder.
  3. Evenly place peanut butter cups on top of dough in 3 rows of 3 cups each.
  4. Haphazardly crumble the reserved dough over the top in marble-sized pieces.
  5. Bake for 13 to 14 minutes, or until edges have set and top is just beginning to set, even if slightly undercooked, pale and glossy in the center. Do not bake longer than 14 minutes for soft bars because they firm up as they cool.
  6. Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Bars will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
