Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
1/3 heaping cup peanut butter*
1 large egg
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips + 2 tablespoons, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
  • Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don't scramble it. Add the peanut butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
  • Add the flour, salt, and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
  • Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips.
  • Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
  • Sprinkle evenly with 2 tablespoons chocolate chips, smoothly the top lightly with a spatula.
  • Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until done. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Allow bars to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Bars will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
