These are the best chocolate chip cookie bars. They are soft and chewy, and so easy to make. Plus, this large batch recipe is made in a 9x13 pan, so there’s plenty to go around. #dairyfree #chocolatechipcookies
Preheat oven to 350˚F and line a 9x13" dish with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat shortening and sugars for about 2 minutes at a medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until combined.
Add flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, mixing until incorporated, scrapping sides as needed. Stir in chocolate chips.
Transfer to the baking dish and press firmly until the dough covers the dish evenly. Bake for 22 - 25 minutes, on until the top is fully set.
Remove from oven and allow chocolate chip cookie bars to cool completely before removing from baking dish.
