Total Time: 30 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 16 squares
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the squares later.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the two large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the 2 cups of chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the squares to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, cut the dessert into 16 squares and serve. Enjoy your delicious Mas Chocolate Chip Squares!
Tips
- Ensure your butter is truly softened but not melted for the perfect texture.
- Use room temperature eggs to help them blend more smoothly into the batter.
- Don't overmix the batter – mix just until ingredients are combined to keep the squares tender.
- For extra richness, try using a mix of milk and dark chocolate chips.
- Let the squares cool completely before cutting for clean, neat edges.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 5 days.
- For a gourmet touch, sprinkle a little sea salt on top before baking to enhance the chocolate flavor.
