Calories: 296kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (melted)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
- flaky sea salt (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, letting the paper come up over the edges so the bars can be removed easily after baking.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
- Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until fully combined.
- Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mixing until combined. Then stir in the chocolate chips.
- Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish (I use my hands to help spread it out) and sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely before cutting into bars. Do not cut them while they are still warm or they will not hold their shape. Cut into 20-24 squares.
To Serve Warm:
- Serve warm in a bowl with ice cream over the top.If the bars have already cooled, microwave the chocolate chip cookie bar for 10 seconds.
