How to Make Chocolate Chip Dream Barz
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Mix with a fork until crumbly, then use your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8x8 inch baking pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- While the crust bakes, in a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs until light and frothy. Add 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; beat well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, and 1 cup chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter evenly over the baked crust.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
