Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

February 24, 2021 by Naomi Andres 4 Comments

These one-bowl Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars are unbelievably soft & chewy, fast & easy to make, and so addicting! Save this recipe for those times when you just need something sweet but don't want to go through all the work of making cookies!

When I say these bars are unbelievably soft chewy, I'm not exaggerating! These are the most amazing chewy cookie bars I have ever had.

Serving Ideas

Now, these cookie bars are good served as is, but I think they would be out-of-this-world delicious served hot out of the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! You don't even have to wait until they are cool enough to slice. Just scoop some out of the pan while it's piping hot and throw on the ice cream... my mouth is watering as I write this! Imagine the gooey melted chocolate and melted ice cream... This is making me want to run and make this recipe again right now!

Variations

This cookie bar batter recipe is very versatile, as well. Don't like semisweet chocolate? Use your favourite kind of chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate) instead. You could also add chopped nuts if you'd like! Or use mini eggs for Easter! You can definitely switch up the add-ins if you would like.

    Made these last night. They were so easy to make and chocolatey delicious! We also ate them warm out of the oven 🙂

    These tasted fantastic (we ate them while still warm)! The stoneware baking pan I used might have been a bit smaller than 9x13, so it took about 30 min to bake, but we loved how soft and full of chocolate these were. Definitely a recipe to make again!
