Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Add the granulated sugar and light brown sugar, then mix until well combined and fluffy.
Step 4
Mix in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next one.
Step 5
Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 7
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 8
Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 9
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to smooth out the surface.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
Step 11
Allow the cookie bars to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Cut into 16 bars and serve. Enjoy your nut-free chocolate chip cookie bars!
