But you guys. I forgot how amazing these S’mores Magic Cookie Bars were until I recently decided they needed a video and to be re-photographed. I love throwing a thicker layer in the middle of my magic bar recipes. Usually a brownie or cookie layer gives a little something extra. In these S’mores Magic Cookie Bars, I went with a sugar cookie layer. It makes for a truly decadent amazing dessert. These are rich and best enjoyed when cut into small bites. And then if you are me, go back to the pan over and over and over again until you beg your husband to take the whole pan to work.
Room temperature butter means that you can dent the butter easily with your finger but can’t push it all the way through. To bring your butter to room temperature fast, cut it into one inch pieces and leave it on the counter for a half hour. Measure your flour by scooping it into the measuring cup and then leveling off. This will prevent the flour from packing (if you scoop right from the container), and ending up with a recipe with too much flour. When it comes to the baking time, keep an eye on them. Oven temperatures can vary, making a big difference in how long these need. Mine baked close to 27 minutes, but from 22 minutes on, I was checking on them and waiting to get a nice golden edge around them.
