Amish Chocolate Chip Bars

by 10 Comments

These chocolate chip bars are adapted from an old Amish Cookbook and they taste AMAZING!

 

  I found an old cookbook called, “Amish Cooking” at my favorite used bookstore last week that is packed full of delicious inspiration. I love Amish recipes because they’re usually simple, homemade and comforting which perfectly describes my own cooking style. This bar recipe is the first one that I’ve tried out of the cookbook and it did not disappoint. It was such a simple recipe that I let my 3-year-old “help” me. I had to improvise a little bit because the directions were almost too simple. So here’s my adapted version of these delicious Amish Chocolate Chip Bars.

 

Amish Chocolate Chip Bars

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups sugar

2 tsp. baking powder

2 cups chocolate chips

4 eggs, slightly beaten

1 1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled

1 tsp vanilla

 

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350

Step 2: In medium bowl, mix dry ingredients.

Step 3: Add remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly.

Step 4: Dump batter onto greased cookie sheet and spread evenly using spatula. (Don’t forget to grease the sides of the pan or it will stick!)

Step 5: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden.

Step 6: Let cool and slice into bars. Enjoy!

  3. By "cookie sheet", do you mean something like a jelly roll pan? What dimension pan are you using? My cookie sheets don't have sides.

  4. My grandmother makes these sometimes, and I love them. She has a little different recipe but this one looks great! I will definitely have to try it. They will be great for some bake sale fundraisers I am doing for my missions trip. Thank you for the recipe!
