This Magic Bars recipe makes a classic holiday treat. Magic cookie bars are chewy, sweet, and SO easy to make! They make a great addition to holiday cookie platters.

Magic cookie bars and a cup of coffee

Whether you enjoy Magic Bars warm from the oven or store in a air tight container to enjoy the next day, they are super delicious! In fact, I think I prefer them to be a day old as they harden up a little bit, but, still super soft.

Magic Bars Recipe Video

Watch the video below to see just how easy this Magic Bars recipe is to put together! Typically the girls make this recipe, but I had some down time and went ahead and shot this video while they were at school.

I’ll be making the Magic Bars recipe (along with our Homemade Buckeyes) so I can add them to our Christmas cookies platter to be passed out to friends & family!
