How to make Monster Cookie No Bake Bars:

• Microwave on high for another 30 seconds. Stir. Repeat until the chocolate is melted and smooth.

• Drizzle the chocolate drizzle over the dough. 

• Chill– Place the confection in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until the chocolate drizzle has solidified.

Why do you need to microwave the flour?

When you are working with flour, generally it is heated up whether it is in the oven or on the stovetop which kills the bacteria in raw flour. However, with this no bake bar cookies you will not be heating up the flour in the slightest. 

Before you mix the dry ingredients into the creamy mixture, you need to microwave the flour by itself in order to kill any of the bacteria that might be in the flour. Once you do that, you are ready to go!

How to store these chewy monster cookie bars

Once you have all of the simple ingredients mixed together and formed into the chewy bars, either cover them with plastic wrap or cut the bars and store it in an airtight container for 4 days at room temperature. Or up to 2 weeks in the fridge.
