Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bars

Print Recipe

Thick, chewy chocolate chip cookie dough bars baked in a tray with extra chocolate chips on top and a sprinkle of sea salt for the perfect sweet-salty finish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 225 g unsalted butter, softened
  • 150 g light brown sugar
  • 75 g granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 270 g plain flour
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 350 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 50 g semi-sweet chocolate chips for topping
  • Sprinkle of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 180C/160C (fan) and line an 8×10" baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and both sugars with an electric hand whisk or stand mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  3. Fold in the plain flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until just combined. Pour in the chocolate chips and fold through the mix until evenly distributed.
  4. Scoop the mix into your prepared tin and spread it out evenly to the edges. Press the rest of the chocolate chips into the top of your cookie dough.
  5. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges and top of the cookie are golden, with a slight wobble in the middle. Whilst still warm, sprinkle the sea salt on the top. Allow to cool fully in the tin.

Notes

For cookies instead of bars, add an extra 50g of flour to prevent spreading. Use semi-sweet chocolate chips for balanced sweetness. Sprinkle sea salt while warm for best adhesion.
