Quick Snack

Have you ever been home, looking for something sweet, with nothing pre made around? That was me last night. Looking through my pantry, I found a Betty Crocker Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie mix. Checked the back to see what I need to make the mix, had the 3 add ins, so I set to work. Instead of making cookies, which requires me to stand by the oven and take cookies in and out, which I don’t always care to do (oatmeal raisin bar blog), I choose the bar route. This late night snack hit the spot, with little work.

To make the bars extra special I added my favorite, peanut butter and a sprinkle of sea salt. Recipe follows:

Betty Crocker Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie mix

2 tablespoons peanut butter

Sea salt

Pre heat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9×9 inch baking pan with cooking spray.

Follow package directions on mix (softened butter, egg, and vanilla).

Once combined, place mix into pan.

Bake 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center.

Once bars are done, drizzle peanut butter on top along with the sea salt:

  • Place 2 tablespoons of peanut butter into a microwavable safe bowl and microwave 15-30 seconds, until consistency is glaze like
  • Drizzle over bars and sprinkle sea salt over
