• Prep time: 30 mins Total time: 4 hours 30 mins
• Serves: 16
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 2 cup all purpose flour
• 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
• 2 c. mini chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (or semi-sweet)

3. Turn the mixer to low and alternate the flour and the sweetened condensed milk until combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips.
4. Press the cookie dough into the bottom of the 8x8 pan that has been lined with parchment paper. It will be sticky so lightly flour your hands if needed.

7. Stir every 30 seconds until smooth.

9. Let sit out for 5-10 minutes to soften before cutting into.
