About Chocolate Chunk Cookie Bars
After making quantities of baking recipes, I have started small-batch recipes for a quick treat and portion control. So, I also decided to share on my blog for those who want to make desserts for an individual or two. Also, I think that small-batch recipes are perfect for those new to baking and want to start with small-sized baked goods and desserts. I decided to start sharing the small-sized recipes with these chocolate chunk bars. And I hope to share more desserts for two with my readers. These chocolate chunk bars are easy and quick to make with a few ingredients. They are soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate chunks. However, you can also use chocolate chips instead of chunks. I like dark chocolate for these cookie bars, but you can also use semi-sweet chocolate chunks or chips.
How To Make Chocolate Chunk Cookie Bars
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 6-inch square pan and line it with parchment paper. Instead of a square pan, you can also use an 8×4-inch loaf pan. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
Add melted butter, brown and granulated sugar, vanilla, and milk in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk well until everything is combined.
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold the chocolate chunks into the cookie bar dough.
Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Top it with more chocolate chunks if you desire.
Bake for 16-18 minutes or until the top is light golden and firm to touch. You can also check the doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center. Do not overbake the cookie bars. Allow cookie bars to cool completely before removing from the pan. Slice the cookie bars as you desire and enjoy!
