    Bailey's Chocolate Chip Bars


    Source of Recipe


    Morning coffee

    List of Ingredients




    2 1/4 cups flour
    1 tsp baking soda
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 cup butter (1 stick) softened
    1/2 cup shortening (if you don't have Crisco, you can just use another stick of butter)
    3/4 cup white sugar
    3/4 cup packed brown sugar
    1 tsp vanilla
    2 large eggs
    1 cup quick cook oats
    1/4 cup Bailey's Irish Cream
    12 oz package semi-sweet chocolate chips
    Nuts if desired

    Filling:
    8 ounces cream cheese
    1/2 cup sour cream
    1-2 tbsp Bailey's Irish Cream
    1/4 cup sugar
    1 tsp vanilla

    Recipe



    In a small bowl combine oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, beat together butter, shortening, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla until creamy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each. Slowly beat in the flour mixture. Stir in the Bailey's and chocolate chips. Add chopped nuts if desired.

    Spoon about 2/3 of the mixture into the bottom of a small greased cake pan.

    In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, Bailey's, sugar and vanilla. Mix until creamy. Layer this mixture into the cake pan.

    Add the remaining dough to the pan in small dollops. Don't worry about smoothing or filling in all the gaps. As it cooks, the dough will expand and fill in most of the spaces.

    Bake at 375° for about an hour. The top will be brown and crispy long before the center cooks, so about 30 minutes in, I covered the top with a layer of tin foil and reduced the heat to 350. Test by inserting toothpick, and if it comes out clean, it's done!

    Allow to cool and then slice into small bars and serve!
