Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and salt, mixing until fully combined.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the mixture, mixing on low speed until a crumbly dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the surface with your hands or the back of a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the brittle to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Using the parchment overhang, carefully lift the brittle out of the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once fully cooled, break the brittle into irregular pieces and store in an airtight container for up to one week.
