Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 piece Large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Chocolate chips (or mix-ins of choice)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, whisking until smooth and slightly thickened.
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips (or other mix-ins of your choice, such as nuts, toffee bits, or white chocolate chips).
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the cookie bars cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 squares or rectangles.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
