How to Make Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Squares

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 cup creamy peanut butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
  4. Remove 16 ounces refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough from its wrapper.
  5. Lightly flour your hands. Press half of the cookie dough evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 8x8 inch or 9x9 inch baking pan.
  6. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cookie dough layer.
  7. Crumble the remaining cookie dough and sprinkle it evenly over the peanut butter layer.
  8. Gently press the crumbled dough into the peanut butter layer to help it adhere.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan for 30 minutes.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the bars to firm up.
  12. Cut into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature.
