How to Make Chocolate Dot Chewies

  1. **Prepare the base:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. **Add wet ingredients:** Beat in 1 cup milk, then add 2 cups all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon salt. Mix until just combined.
  3. **Spread the base:** Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  4. **Bake the base:** Bake for 10 minutes.
  5. **Prepare the topping:** While the base bakes, in a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. **Add topping ingredients:** Stir in ½ cup chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped nuts (optional).
  7. **Top and bake:** Remove the pan from the oven. Pour the chocolate topping evenly over the baked base.
  8. **Finish baking:** Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. **Cool and cut:** Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares or bars. This allows them to set properly.
  10. **Enjoy!:** Store leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
