How to Make Ghirardelli Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in 2 cups Ghirardelli chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
- Remove from pan and cut into squares. Enjoy!
