Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Light brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 whole Large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture and whisk until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 23-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the squares to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into 12 squares.
Serve and enjoy. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
