How to Make Chocolate Chewy Scotch Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt 12 ounces (340g) semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, and 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) unsalted butter over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth and melted. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
  4. Stir in 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Grease and flour a 15x10 inch jelly roll pan (or line with parchment paper).
  6. Spread half of the brown sugar dough evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. Pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the dough.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of the remaining brown sugar dough over the chocolate layer. Using a butter knife, gently swirl the dough to create a marble effect.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.
