How to Make Party Bars
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 15x10x1 inch jelly roll pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 2 cups maraschino cherries, drained, and 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (or less, to taste).
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 24-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. (Optional: Frost with your favorite chocolate icing while still warm).
