Description

These Chocolate Chip Bars are the ultimate comfort food treat, offering a perfect balance of chewy texture and rich flavor. Made with C and H Golden Brown Sugar, they have a distinct caramel-like depth that sets them apart from standard cookies. The batter is simple to mix, combining butter, flour, and vanilla before folding in plenty of chocolate pieces and crunchy walnuts. Baked until just set, they emerge from the oven with a golden crust and a soft, gooey center. These bars are incredibly versatile, making them ideal for school lunches, potlucks, or a quick afternoon pick-me-up. They are easy to customize with different nuts or chocolate varieties, ensuring there is always a fresh batch waiting in your pantry.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC) and grease a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and golden brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg until fully incorporated and smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture along with the vanilla extract, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate pieces and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan, creating 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 for at least 10 minutes before cutting.
  10. Cut into 48 squares and serve.
