Butter Cookie Bars

Recipe #203036 | 1 hour | 15 min prep | add private note

By: nranger7
Jan 2, 2007

Did you get a bunch of tins of Danish butter cookies over the holidays and don't know what to do with them all? I sure did. So I adapted a Ritz cracker recipe (Abracadabra Bars from NabiscoWorld.com) using butter cookies instead of the crackers. The original recipe calls for walnuts. I'm allergic so I used sliced almonds. The number of actual cookies used may vary since they tend to come in various shapes and sizes. I used a mix of round and square cookies for the first layer and broke up the pretzel shaped ones for the top.
