Whether you know them as magic cookie bars or seven layer bars, this dessert is so incredible that the name truly is fitting. I’ve yet to meet a person who does not like Magic Cookie Bars, hence why they are the perfect item to bring to your next party this holiday season. No one will be disappointed when they sink their teeth into these delectably rich (and addicting!) better-than-blondies. Hope you guys enjoy them half as much as I do– and shoutout to Claudia Sheer for introducing me to this phenomenal recipe.
