My son was off from school with the flu one day and I wanted to make something that would lift his spirits. Like his Dad, he is a big chocolate lover so I wanted to make something really special.

Let me tell you – these bars are definitely special! My husband says they are brownies, but I say they are cookie bars because of the crispy outer shell, but please feel free to test them for yourself and weigh in on the debate.

Why This Recipe Works

  • Melted chocolate and cocoa powder add the ultimate chocolate flavor.
  • The blondie base ensures a deliciously chewy consistency that can’t be beat!
  • Using vanilla adds an extra depth of flavor

As a base for this recipe, I used my Classic Chocolate Chip Blondies recipe . I used that one instead of the more obvious chocolate variety because it is by far the best cookie bar recipe I’ve ever made.

The only thing I changed is the addition of melted chocolate and cocoa powder and my goodness, what a good choice it was. I think I’ll be adding these to my gift baskets this year!

Ingredients

  • ▢ 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (to be melted)
  • ▢ 2 cups all-purpose/plain flour
  • ▢ ¼ cup unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • ▢ 1 teaspoon salt
  • ▢ 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ▢ 1 teaspoon baking soda/bicarbonate of soda
  • ▢ 1 cup butter (softened)
  • ▢ 1½ cups light brown sugar (packed)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F/ 170C degrees.

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup dark chocolate chips on medium power in 30-second intervals until just melted.
  • Sift the flour, Cocoa Powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder together into a large mixing bowl.
  • In a large mixing bowl beat the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy.
  • Mix in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla. Add melted chocolate and mix until combined.
