I was searching for a dessert one day on Pinterest and found these bars. I already have a recipe very similar to this one that I believe are called Blondies. I've made them numerous times but they were never as good as a chocolate chip cookie. For whatever reason I decided to give these a try. To my surprise they tasted very similar to a chocolate chip cookie. The middle stays gooey and moist and the top has a thin layer of golden brown cookie. My favorite part is that they are very quick to make! I needed a snack for life group one Tuesday and hadn't had time Monday night. I woke up early Tuesday morning before school and quick made a batch. They were ready to take that evening without me spending forever in the kitchen. I never know when I'm going to need a quick dessert to take somewhere. It's nice to have something quick to throw together if needed! Enjoy!
