Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the cookie bars.
Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until smooth and well incorporated to form the cookie bar batter.
Add Chocolate Chips: Fold the chocolate chips into the batter until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture, adding sweetness and texture.
Prepare for Baking: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish, pressing down gently to ensure it is smooth and level.
Bake: Bake the cookie bars in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the center is set, indicating the bars are fully cooked.
Cool and Serve: Allow the cookie bars to cool completely in the baking dish before cutting into 16 squares. Serve and enjoy this delicious treat!

Notes

Ensure the bars are fully cooled before cutting to maintain clean edges.
For a nutty variation, add chopped nuts along with the chocolate chips.
Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
These bars can be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.
Use parchment paper for easy removal and less cleanup.
