Description

These chocolate chip bars are the ultimate crowd-pleaser, offering a perfect balance of texture and flavor. Unlike traditional cookies, the batter is spread thin in a large pan, resulting in bars with delightfully crispy edges and a soft, chewy interior. The use of C&H Golden Brown Sugar adds a rich, caramel-like depth that enhances the classic chocolate and vanilla profile. Topped with crunchy walnuts and generous chocolate pieces, each bite is satisfying without being overly dense. They are incredibly easy to mix up, making them perfect for potlucks, bake sales, or simply satisfying a sweet tooth after dinner. Cut into small squares, they are easy to share and almost too good to resist.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC). Grease a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the 1/2 cup softened butter and 3/4 cup firmly packed C&H Golden Brown Sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg until well combined and smooth.
  4. Stir in 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until just incorporated.
  5. Mix in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Fold in 6 ounces of chocolate pieces and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.
  7. Spread the dough evenly into the prepared pan, pressing it down to form a thin, uniform layer.
  8. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  9. Allow the bars to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before cutting.
  10. Cut into 48 squares and serve.
