To make the bars, start by lining an 8-inch pan with parchment paper or just greasing it well. Set this pan aside.<\/p>\n
Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl, and stir well to combine. Transfer to the prepared 8-inch pan, and smooth the batter down with a spatula or a second sheet of parchment. If you wish, sprinkle on some extra chocolate chips or toppings of choice.<\/p>\n
Bake 13 minutes on the oven\u2019s center rack (or 15 minutes if using almond flour). The bars should look underdone and gooey after this time, which is what you want. <\/p>\n
Let them cool, and they will begin to firm up. For extra gooey bars (my preference), serve after a half hour. Otherwise, let them sit loosely covered overnight, and excess moisture will evaporate to give you the perfect firm-yet-soft cookie bar texture.<\/p>\n
