As a result of my last trip to Costco, I have a Kirkland sized bag of chocolate chips sitting in my pantry. As per usual, when I procrastinate, I bake. But I wasn't in the mood to make a batch of cookies from scratch so I thought about something simpler, cookie bars. I did a quick search and decided to use Nestle's recipe for Chocolate Chip Pan Cookies on their Very Best Baking website.
Here's the list of ingredients (recipe credit Very Best Baking):
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups (12-oz. pkg.) Nestle Toll House Semi-Sweet chocolate morsels
- 1 cup chopped nuts
Mix the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda and salt. Cream the butter, sugars, and vanilla extract. Beat in the eggs, one by one. Stir in the dry mixture in 3 parts. Add in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Pour and spread the mixture in a greased 10x15 inch pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden.
Some days, there’s just no time to be baking cookies with rotating cookie sheets and bulky cooling racks. Let's not even get into the clean up involved. Chocolate chip pan cookies are super yummy and a great alternative when you are short on baking time.
