Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Put a kid-friendly twist on these bars! Use 1 pouch Betty Crocker™ peanut butter cookie mix in place of the oatmeal cookie mix. Prepare as directed in recipe with the 1/2 cup butter. Omit the cognac and espresso from the chocolate cheesecake batter, and make and bake as directed in recipe.
