The Chocolate-Bar Cookie Bar

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350F and grease and 8x8 baking pan with butter (or oil).

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar using a hand- or stand-mixer on high until smooth and fluffy. Add in the egg, nut butter and vanilla - one at a time - and beat again until incorporated. Set aside.

3. 3

   Combine the dry ingredients in a small bowl and stir. Slowly scoop spoonfuls of the dry ingredient mixture into the large bowl of butter-sugar-egg mixture. Keep the mixing speed on low to prevent flour from flying everywhere. Mix until just combined and gently fold in the chocolate bar chunks and nuts.

4. 4

   Transfer the batter into the greased baking pan and lightly press it to evenly spread throughout the pan. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

5. 5

   Cool before slicing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.

6. 6

   Enjoy!
