Chocolate Chip Blondies

Yum, chocolate chips. I love 'em straight from the bag. But even better, slightly melted in a cookie, they are divine.

I really like this blondie recipe because it's quick to make and I don't have to deal with the kids trying to steal tastes of the dough while I make individual cookies. But they're still gooey and chocolatey just like cookies. Or, you could use a different kind of chip, like butterscotch, or mini M&Ms.

Chocolate Chip Blondies

1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 stick butter or margarine, melted
1-1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9x9 baking pan. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside. Mix the melted butter and brown sugar in a large bowl until the mixture is completely moistened. Add the eggs and vanilla and stir until smooth. Add the flour mixture and stir until all the flour is moistened. Stir in the chocolate chips. Spread the batter into the baking pan evenly. Bake for 35 minutes.
