7 chocolate chip bar recipes

Triple chocolate oatmeal cookies with blended oat flour, chocolate chips, grated Hershey bar, and chopped nuts. A massive 108-cookie batch baked in just 6 minutes each.

Banana chocolate chip bars with whole wheat flour, mashed ripe bananas, and mini chocolate morsels, dusted with powdered sugar. A bake-and-share sheet bar that yields a crowd.

Chewy mini chocolate chip bars made with nonfat yogurt and egg whites instead of butter. Lower in fat but still loaded with brown sugar chewiness.

Chocolate chip tea sandwiches: a chewy brown-sugar blondie bar studded with chocolate chips, baked in a sheet pan and cut into dainty squares for tea, showers, or bake sales.

Gooey butter pecan bars layered with melted marshmallows, chocolate chips, and coconut on a cake mix crust. A 5-minute prep, no-fuss dessert bar that disappears at every potluck and bake sale.

Oatmeal, dried cranberries, and chocolate chips are all my favorites. I always use low-fat yogurt to replace sour cream if possible. These cookies are so yummy.

These yummy treats are made with whole wheat flour, oats, applesauce, vegetable oil and a tiny amount of butter, which adds lots of heart-healthy ingredients to the cookies without losing any bit of deliciousness. Especially when peanut butter and chocolate chips are involved, make sure to bake enough, because they disappear quicky.
