Magic Cookie Bars with Dates

Magic Cookie Bars with Dates

By Angela McGowan

Over the holidays one of my favorite neighbors brought me a goodie basket full of sweet treats. Along with some of the best fudge I have ever had, and some amazing Christmas cookies were these magic cookie bars. I have had them years ago, but had long since forgot about them. I enjoyed them so much, I asked for the recipe and made my own batch last week.

This recipe is based off the original from EAGLE BRAND®. For my recipe, I just added a bit more coconut and some dates. You can play around with the toppings for these cookie bars however you like. You could do dark chocolate, butterscotch, white chocolate or a combination. You can also add whichever type of nuts and dried fruit you have in your pantry. I used pecans because they’re my favorite, and I couldn’t resist adding some dates.
