Big delicious chocolate bars full of Snickers.
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • pinch salt
  • 1 1/2 cups diced Snickers
  • about 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, set aside.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, about 1 minute. Cool slightly. Add the egg, sugars, water, vanilla, and stir or whisk vigorously to combine, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, optional salt and stir until just incorporated. Dough will be quite thick and dense.
  4. Reserve about 2/3 cup dough; set aside. Turn remaining dough out into prepared pan, smoothing it lightly with a spatula. Evenly sprinkle the Snickers over the dough. Crumble the reserved cookie dough over the top in irregular, marble-sized chunks. Pour sweetened condensed milk over the top.
  5. Bake for about 27 to 30 minutes, or until center is mostly set.
  6. Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 3 hours before slicing and serving.
  7. Yield: one 8-by-8-inch pan, 9 to 12 squares
