Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookie Bars

Ingredients:

- 1 (18 ounce) package of refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough

- 3 cups of confectioners sugar

- 1 cup of peanut butter

- 2 tablespoons of butter, softened

- 1/4 cup of water

- 1 cup of milk chocolate chips

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Press cookie dough into the bottom of a 9 inch square baking pan. Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool for 15 minutes. In a medium bowl, combine the confectioners sugar, peanut butter, butter, and water. Mix well, until creamy. Spoon the peanut butter mixture and smooth evenly on top of the baked cookie crust. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second intervals, until completely melted. Pour melted chocolate on top of the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate for an hour and cut into bars.
