Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp salt

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

1 cup white chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on all sides for easy removal.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and nuts (if using).

Storage & Reheating

Store the cooled brookie bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or wrap individual bars in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat the frozen bars at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through. Enjoy!
