Choc chip cookie bars instructions

Preheat your oven to 180°C/Fan 170°C and grease & line the base and 2 sides of the baking tin/dish.

In an electric stand mixer or a large bowl with an electric hand whisk, beat together the butter (really soft or melted) and the sugar until very light and fluffy.

Add in the egg & the vanilla and beat again until smooth. Scrape the bowl down half way through.

Sift in the flour, salt & bicarbonate of soda. Fold in using a spatula. Don’t overdo it, just fold until you can’t see anymore flour.

Stir through two thirds of the chocolate chips.

Tip the mixture into the prepared tin/dish and press evenly, right into the corners. Top with the remaining chocolate chips and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.

It should golden and a little crunchy on top when done.

Allow to cool completely in the tin/dish before removing and slicing into 9 or 16 bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature and consume within 4-5 days.

Choc Chip Cookie Bars are just wonderful! Gooey in the middle, chewy on the edges and packed to the rafters with milk chocolate chips. I do love making a big tray of something and cutting into bars instead of making lots of small individual ones. So much simpler and less hassle!

I hope you enjoyed the post my lovelies, until next time!
