Churro Crème Brûlée Bars

Ingredients

1
Pillsbury™ Refrigerated Pie Crust, softened as directed on package
4
eggs
3/4
cup sugar
1/2
cup butter, softened
1
tablespoon Mexican vanilla (or plain vanilla extract)
3/4
cup flour
1 1/2
cups milk
1/4
cup cinnamon sugar

Steps

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with nonstick baking spray. Unroll pie crust and line the bottom of the pan with it. Use a sharp knife to gently remove the edges, so the pie only lines the bottom of the pan.
  • 2
    In a stand mixer, combine the eggs, sugar and butter, creaming until light and fluffy. Add vanilla, flour and milk. Mix until combined and pour into crust.
  • 3
    Bake for 40 minutes. Carefully open the oven and sprinkle a layer of cinnamon sugar over the top of the bars. Return to oven and bake 15-20 minutes more, until the center is set.
  • 4
    Allow to cool completely before slicing into bars. Enjoy!
