Over bought cookie ingredients....ugh.

so so — Wed, 08 Jan 2020 16:38:56 GMT

as usual I over bought a number of ingredients for cookie making. I had graham cracker crumbs, white chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, condensed milk, and marshmellow cream.. so i found a simple cookie recipe using just 4 ingredients and they were the BOMB!!

4 ingredient smores cookies

3 1/2 cups graham crumbs

2 cups chocolate chips

1 can sweet condensed milk

marshmellow creme

combine the first three ingredients.... the dough will be tough to mix. place by spoonfuls on parchment paper. bake for 8 to 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven.... when they come out and are still warm, dollap a bit of marshemellow cream on top. it will melt and will spread out. let them cool 10 minutes then move to a rack......thats it. and they are YUMMY!!

PS make sure you use SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK and not evaporated milk!!!

@so so I'm so very happy the only one of the four ingredients I have in my pantry are the graham crackers. Those cookies would already be on their way to the oven if I had the rest!

There's a great layered bar cookie using sweetened condensed milk.

I think they are called Magic Cookie Bars or 7 Layer cookie bar.

Lots of good recipes on the website for Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk

@so so

When you say 'spoon' the cookie dough, do you mean using a tablespoon, teaspoon or larger?

You are very resourceful. I hate wasting ingredients too.

@KingstonsMom , Well to be fair, I didn't know you then, or I for sure would have saved you a cookie. It was a long time ago but I think the ingredients were S.Condensed milk, coconut, vanilla and mini chocolate chips. Mr Google could help you out if you want to make them.

@software In May of 2013 FunkyHulaGirl posted a recipe for Raspberry Coconut Magic Bars that is a gussied up version of the original Eagle sweetened condensed milk recipe.

Her contributions, especially in baking, were always wonderful. She no longer participates here, alas. Use the search function and select "board" category and you will find it.

The original, without raspberry preserves, is also posted here, I think by me, a couple of years ago but now I couldn't locate it here in a quick "search" effort, but you definitely will find it on the internet.

Happy cookie ventures to all . . .

Well I have ate those. My mom used to make them. Have not ate one in a long time.

Techinically it's not a cookie but those bar type cookies take less time to make. LOL!!!

Just curious what you use your butterscotch chips for? I bought some this year for the first time, just for the heck of it, and haven't used them yet! Does anyone else have any good uses for them too?

Here is a recipe that uses Butterscotch baking chips:

Nestle Oatmeal Scotchies--from the very best baking website

INGREDIENTS

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or grated peel of 1 orange
3 cups quick or old-fashioned oats
1 2/3 cups (11-oz. pkg.) Nestle Toll House Butterscotch Flavored Morsels

PREHEAT oven to 375° F.

COMBINE flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in oats and morsels. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE for 7 to 8 minutes for chewy cookies or 9 to 10 minutes for crisp cookies. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

PAN COOKIE VARIATION:
Grease 15 x 10-inch jelly-roll pan. Prepare dough as above. Spread into prepared pan. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes or until light brown. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Makes 4 dozen bars.

You can find the recipe for the 7 Layer Magic Cookie Bars at the Eagle Brand Recipe Site.

As previously mentioned, the recipe uses both chocolate chips and butterscotch baking morsels.

Here is a link to the recipe itself:

https://www.eaglebrand.com/recipe-detail/sevenlayermagiccookiebars-3966

I wasn't able to copy and paste it because it had buttons in front of each ingredient as a check-off list.

I love these magic bars. I used to make them all of the time.

I stopped making them because they were just too good to eat! LOL!!

I called my self being smart and I made a bunch of cookie dough and froze it. I was ready. And then I didn't bake as many cookies as I usually do. I'm staying away but I see that hubby pops half dozen in the oven almost every evening to snack on so that cookie dough won't be around too much longer.

@Toppers3 Thanks so much for the ideas! I would love both of them, but my hubby has an *ahem* aversion 😂 to coconut, so I will likely make the Nestle Oatmeal Scotchies. They sound wonderful, and easy as well. After the holidays I think I need easy! So sweet of you to take the time to post for me.

You're very welcome!

This is an oldie, but a goodie in terms of a recipe.

My Mom used to bake these for us when I was little. I haven't made any in a long time.

The Eagle Brand website has many different recipes on there, so maybe you can find something where you can make the bars without the coconut.
