Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease or line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, stirring until combined.
- Add dry ingredients: Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, and stir until just mixed. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared dish and spread evenly. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and slice: Allow to cool in the pan before slicing into bars.
Notes
- Feel free to swap in dark chocolate, white chocolate, or add nuts for variety.
- These bars are meant to be soft and chewy, so avoid overbaking for best texture.
