Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour Note: for best results measure your flour by first fluffling it up, then scoop, and level off the cup with the edge of a knife.
- 1 1/4 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F. Spray and line a 9x9 baking pan with parchment paper with long ends so that you can lift the bars out for easy slicing after baking.
- Cream the soft butter with the brown and white sugar, beating until fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
- Beat in the baking soda and salt, then fold in the flour until no dry streaks remain. Don't over-mix your dough at this point. When the flour is almost completely folded in, add the chocolate chips and finish folding until everything is well combined.
- Drop the dough by spoonfuls across the bottom of your prepared pan and spread it out evenly. I like to use my hands (flour them if too sticky) and an offset spatula to get it smooth and even.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until starting to wrinkle and turn golden around the edges. The center will still look a bit soft.
- Let the bars cool before lifting them out using the parchment paper sling. Cut them into 12-16 bars.
Notes
- Love your cookie bars extra soft and gooey? Check them at 25 minutes.
- If you want a memorable dessert, slightly under-bake these bars and serve hot, scooped in bowls and topped with vanilla ice cream.
