Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar Tips
What are bar cookies?
Cookie bars are exactly like regular ol' cookies—just in bar form. To make them, all you need to do is press the batter into a baking pan and cook them in the oven. When it's time to dig in, try
cutting your cookie bars one of these three ways.
How do you know when cookie bars are done?
You can check the doneness by doing the toothpick test (just like you do for testing the
doneness of cake). If you want your cookie bars soft and gooey, a few crumbs are fine. But, if you want them completely done, bake until the toothpick comes out clean.
Why are my cookie bars dry?
If your cookie bars turned out dry, don't fret—it's one of the most
common baking mistakes. To prevent dry cookie bars, we recommend checking on them about 5 minutes before the recommended baking time just to be safe. Make sure you're using the right pan size, too. Using too large of a baking pan can create a thin, dry batter.
What is an example of a bar cookie?
We have plenty more
cookie bar recipes to choose from. Try something new by whipping up these
Butterfinger Cookie Bars or these

This recipe has too much brown sugar. It should be split with white sugar. Toll house recipe is much better.
This is basically a double recipe of Toll House cookies, but a great idea to feed a large group.
Great recipe. It's quick and easy, although next time I will be cutting the recipe in half. It made about 3 pans worth for me and I took one to work, one to my boyfriends house, and then kept one in the fridge for a week and pulled it out for a girls night. The best part is that the one I kept in the fridge was still soft and yummy even after 7 days...
Yummy! I used this recipe to bake bar cookies as part of a dessert buffet for a large group of individuals. These particular cookies were gone in a matter of minutes.
