This recipe is easy to make and even easier to eat. These come together with simple ingredients and store bought hacks. It makes these a fast dessert that is decadent and perfect.

This is a brief overview of how to make this delicious recipe. For the full recipe with all of the instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

  1. Make the sugar cookie layer. I used a mix, but you could make my homemade sugar cookie bars .
  2. Make the fudge layer. Combine chocolate and sweetened condensed milk to make the fudge layer. Spread it onto the cooled cookie layer.
  3. Make the chocolate layer. Combine chocolate and butter until it is smooth. Pour it over the set fudge layer.

In this recipe, we are taking the help of a store bought mix to make a super fast dessert. But if you prefer to bake from scratch, you are not alone and I have you covered. You can make my Sugar Cookie Bars and then just forgo the frosting layer to make the fudge and chocolate layers here.

Fudge Layer

For the second layer of these bars, we are using the tried and true method of three ingredient fudge. It’s fail proof and works so well as a second layer on these bars. Once you have it melted you want to work quickly so that you can spread it on the bars before it sets. It will be really thick.

Chocolate Layer

For the final layer, we are combining chocolate and butter to make a chocolate like frosting to go on the top. It is creamy, delicious, and perfect. We use the same method in my Mint Chocolate Brownies . It’s fantastic.

Cutting

I sliced mine kind of thin like Twix bar size, because they are so rich, and then drizzled a little melted white chocolate on top for some prettiness, but you can go ahead and just eat it right from the pan if you want. No judgement.

Storing and Freezing

These can be stored at room temperature in an air tight container. Keep them for up to one week. As with all recipes, use your best discretion when it comes to leftovers.

This freeze well. They should be frozen in a single layer for two hours before being layered in an air tight container and put back in the freezer. Freeze for up to three months.
