Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and line a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with parchment paper or foil for easy removal and cutting. If you're using foil, be sure to lightly spray it with cooking spray.
Add the melted butter to a bowl and stir in the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Then stir in the eggs and vanilla until the mixture is smooth.
In the same bowl, add the flour, salt, and baking soda. Fold the dry ingredients into the melted butter mixture. When almost combined, add the chocolate chips and continuie to fold until the ingredients are combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Spread the dough in the prepared pan. It will be thick and sticky, but press it as evenly as you can with a spatula or your fingers. I like to sprinkle a few more chocolate chips on the top of the dough before baking.
Bake the cookies for 20 to 25 minutes. Don't overbake these cookie bars; you want them to be set but not hard. Once cooked, melt chocolate and drizzle over the top if desired. Then cut into individual squares or bars.

Notes

Doubling the recipe: The recipe is simple to double by increasing the ingredients accordingly and baking in a 13 x 18-inch pan. Bake at 325°F for approximately 30 minutes or until the top is golden and slightly firm.
