List of Ingredients



• Nonstick cooking spray
  
• 16 individually wrapped Cookies 'n' Creme candy bars (6 ounces total)
  
• 1-3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
  
• 1-1/4 tsp baking powder
  
• 1/8 tsp salt
  
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  
• 1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
  
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 1-1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  






Instructions



1. Lightly spray a 7x11-inch baking pan with cooking spray and set aside. Heat oven to 350 degrees (F).
   
   
2. Chop the chocolate into small chunks; set aside. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until smooth and blended, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the dry ingredients, beating about 2 minutes to blend. Stir in the chopped chocolate by hand. (The dough will be very stiff.) Transfer to the prepared pan and spread with a spatula.
   
   
3. Bake on center oven rack 30 minutes, or until the cookies test done in the center. Cool completely before cutting.
