Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 ⅛ cups all purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 12 Tbsp butter melted and cooled slightly
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Adjust the oven rack to lower-middle position.
- Line a 9X13-inch baking pan with foil. Allow the excess to hang over the edges of the pan by about 1 inch so you can grab those edges and pull the bars from the pan after they've baked. Spray the foil-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda together in medium bowl; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter and sugars until combined. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix well.
- Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined; do not overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips and add the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the spatula.
- Bake until the top of the bars are light golden brown, slightly firm to the touch, and edges start pulling away from sides of pan, 24-28 minutes. Cool on a wire rack to room temperature.
- Remove the bars from the pan by lifting the foil overhang and transfer them to a cutting board. Cut into squares and serve.
