  • 2
    In large bowl, mix cookie mix, oil, water and egg with spoon until soft dough forms. Press dough in bottom of pan. Bake 15 minutes.
  • 3
    In small bowl, mix condensed milk and peanut butter. Pour evenly over baked crust, carefully spreading to edges. Sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and peanuts evenly over top. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until bubbling along edges. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 hour. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Try dark chocolate chips in place of semisweet chips for the ultimate decadence.
  • tip 2
    The secret for cutting bars easily is to line the pan with heavy-duty or nonstick foil. When it is time to cut the bars, just lift the baked bar with the foil out of the pan, and cut. This also makes cleanup extra easy.
