How to Make 3 Layer Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- **Prepare the base layer:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup powdered sugar, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter. Mix until well combined. Press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- **Prepare the middle layer:** In a separate bowl, beat together 2 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter until smooth and creamy. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour the middle layer over the graham cracker crust and spread evenly.
- **Prepare the topping layer:** In a small bowl, melt 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir until smooth.
- Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the middle layer.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is set and the edges are slightly golden.
- Let cool completely before cutting into bars. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for easier cutting.
