Tips & Techniques

  • Success

    If you line the pan with aluminum foil, you can lift out the bars for easy cutting and cleanup.

  • Variation

    Any salted nuts, whether one variety at a time (peanuts, almonds, macadamia nuts) or mixed, are can’t-miss delicious.

  • Time Saver

    Using the microwave to melt the chocolate chips with the corn syrup and butter keeps you from standing at the stove. Use a 4-cup glass measuring cup or microwavable bowl. Microwave uncovered on Medium (50%) for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring now and then, until melted.

Ingredients

  • 1  cup packed brown sugar
  • 1  cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons vanilla
  • 1  egg
  • 2  cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
  • 1  bag (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
  • 1/2  cup light corn syrup
  • 2  tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 1  can (12 ounces) salted mixed nuts

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 350ºF. Mix brown sugar, 1 cup butter, the vanilla and egg in large bowl. Stir in flour. Spread evenly in bottom of ungreased rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches. Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until light brown. Cool 20 minutes.
  2. 2While crust is baking, heat chocolate chips, corn syrup and 2 tablespoons butter in 1 1/2-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until chips are melted. Cool 20 minutes.
  3. 3Spread chocolate mixture over crust. Sprinkle with nuts; gently press into chocolate. Refrigerate uncovered about 2 hours or until chocolate is firm. For 48 squares, cut into 8 rows by 6 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.
