Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and
salt. Set aside.
On medium low speed, beat the butter and sugar for about three
minutes, until it is light and fluffy. Then add the vanilla, and one
egg at a time, combining for about thirty seconds after each
addition.
Gradually add the flour mixture until it is well combined, scraping
down the sides of the mixing bowl as necessary.
Press the cookie dough into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan and
bake for about 20 minutes. Let it cool on the counter for about 10
minutes, and then put it in the refrigerator for a half hour.
While the Sugar Cookie layer cools, make the next layer. Soften the
butter in the microwave for about thirty seconds. Add the cookie
butter and put it back in the microwave for another 30 seconds at
half power. Whisk in the powdered sugar until it is smooth. Put it
over the cooled (it does not have to be completely cooled) sugar
cookie layer, and spread it until it is even. Put it back in the
refrigerator for another 30 minutes.
While the Cookie Butter layer cools, melt the butter and chocolate
together, either over low heat on the stove top, or in the microwave
on half power. Once the Cookie Butter layer is set, spread the
chocolate layer over it and let it set for another 30 minutes to an
hour.
When yo go to cut the bars, make sure they come to room
temperature, or the chocolate will crack and break.
