Easy Snickers Chocolate Chip Blondie Recipe
These blonde brownies with chocolate chips and Snickers are soft, tender, slightly chewy, and diced Snickers add a wonderful texture to the otherwise buttery smooth dough.
There are plenty of semi-sweet chocolate chips in every bite to satisfy your chocolate cravings. Whether you call these blondies or cookie bars, they’re addictive.
I added a generous bit of kosher salt to the dough for a salty-sweet effect. You can omit or reduce the salt, but since we love salted chocolate anything, this was a lovely touch.
If you have extra candy lying around from Halloween, Valentine’s Day, Easter, holiday entertaining, a birthday party, or a graduation party, Snickers cookie bars are the perfect easy dessert recipe to put it to use.
Love Snickers?
My Snickers dip is ready in 10 minutes and features tangy cream cheese, chopped Snickers, and peanuts with melted milk chocolate and salted caramel swirled throughout.
And my soft and chewy Snickers chocolate chip cookies are crisp around the edges, perfectly chewy in the center, and studded with irresistible chocolate and Snickers pieces in every delectable bite!
What’s in the Snickers Cookie Bars?
You only need a handful of common fridge and panty ingredients for this simple Snickers dessert.
Get out your:
- Butter – Unsalted butter is best
- Egg – Let it come to room temperature for easy mixing
- Brown sugar
- Vanilla extract
- Flour
- Salt
- Snickers bars – I used classic Snickers bars in this recipe, but you can use any kind you’d like

How to Make Snickers Cookie Bars
These easy, one-bowl blonde chocolate chip brownies with Snickers are a cinch to make and so fast! Here’s an overview of the process:
- Melt the butter in the microwave. Let it rest momentarily, and stir in the egg, brown sugar, and vanilla, whisking until smooth. If you add the egg too soon it will scramble!
- Add the flour and salt, and stir just until smooth. Fold in most of the Snickers pieces.
- Transfer the batter to a square baking pan lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Sprinkle the remaining Snickers pieces and chocolate chips on top.
- Bake until the top is golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick test is unreliable because you will likely hit melted chocolate or caramel. However, if you hit a patch of dough, the toothpick should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
- Place the pan on a wire rack to cool for at least 90 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Avoid overbaking
Make sure to remove the bars from the oven as soon as they’re set. It’s okay if they look a little underdone. They’ll continue to bake slightly as they cool!

Yes! If desired, you can double the ingredients and make the cookie bars in a 9×13-inch pan instead. That’s a whole lot of Snickers cookie bars!
Leftovers will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Chocolate Chip Snickers Cookie Bars
Equipment
- 1 (8×8 inch) Baking Pan
- 1 Large, Microwave-Safe Bowl
- 1 Wire Wrack
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ to 1 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
- 2 king-sized Snickers bars, diced into small pieces; divided (about 1 1/2 cups loosely packed
- ⅔ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips; divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil if desired for easier cleanup and spray with cooking spray; set aside.
- To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat to melt, about 1 minute on high power.
- Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don’t scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
- Add the flour, salt, and stir until just combined, don’t overmix.
- Add the most of the Snickers pieces (reserve about 10-12 pieces to manually add to the top of the batter) chocolate chips (reserve about 1/4 cup to manually add to the top of the batter), and stir to combine.
- Turn the batter out into the prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
- Evenly place the reserved Snickers and chocolate chips on top of the batter.
- Bake for about 22 to 26 minutes, or until top is set in center and done; don’t overbake. Blondies firm up as they cool. A toothpick test is unreliable because you will likely hit melted chocolate or caramel, but if you hit a patch of dough, the toothpick should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
- Place pan on a wire rack to cool for at least 90 minutes before slicing and serving.
