Full Recipe:

Ingredients (Serves 24)

• 2 1/8 cups all-purpose flour

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ½ teaspoon baking soda

• 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

• 1 cup packed brown sugar

• ½ cup granulated sugar

• 2 large eggs

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

• 2 cups chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.

2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until well combined.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.

5. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

6. Bake: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

7. Cool and Serve: Allow the cookie bars to cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack. Once cool, use the parchment overhang to lift them out of the pan and cut into 24 bars.
