Championship Chocolate Chip Bars

These are just plain evil!

Championship Chocolate Chip Bars

1 ½ Cup all–purpose flour

½ Cup packed dark brown sugar

½ Cup (1 stick) cold butter or margarine (I used real butter)

2 Cups (12 oz. package) Semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

1 can (14 oz.) Sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup chopped nuts (I used pecans)

1. Heat oven to 350˙.

2. Stir together flour and brown sugar in medium bowl; with pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in ½ cup chocolate chips; press mixture onto bottom of 13X9X2-inch baking pan. Bake 15 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, egg and vanilla. Stir in remaining 1 ½ cups chips and nuts. Spread over baked crust. Continue baking 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on wire rack. Cut into bars.

Makes about 36 bars. (I cut them smaller)
