Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars – A Perfectly Sweet Treat

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease or line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, softened butter, and brown sugar. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to cream them together until smooth and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Step 3: Add the Chocolate Chips
Gently fold the chocolate chips into the dough.
Step 4: Bake the Bars
Spread the dough evenly in the prepared baking pan.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the cookie bars cool in the pan before cutting into squares or rectangles.
