This Triple Chocolate Chip Bars recipe is filled with white, milk, and dark chocolate chips. The perfect mix between a cookie and a brownie.
Crisp on the outside, and soft & chewy on the inside. These bars are any chocolate lover’s dream!
My son was off from school with the flu one day and I wanted to make something that would lift his spirits. Like his Dad, he is a big chocolate lover so I wanted to make something really special.
Let me tell you – these bars are definitely special! My husband says they are brownies, but I say they are cookie bars because of the crispy outer shell, but please feel free to test them for yourself and weigh in on the debate.
Why This Recipe Works
- Melted chocolate and cocoa powder add the ultimate chocolate flavor.
- The blondie base ensures a deliciously chewy consistency that can’t be beat!
- Using vanilla adds an extra depth of flavor
As a base for this recipe, I used my Classic Chocolate Chip Blondies recipe. I used that one instead of the more obvious chocolate variety because it is by far the best cookie bar recipe I’ve ever made.
The only thing I changed is the addition of melted chocolate and cocoa powder and my goodness, what a good choice it was. I think I’ll be adding these to my gift baskets this year!

Triple Chocolate Chip Bars
Ingredients
- 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (to be melted)
- 2 cups all-purpose/plain flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda/bicarbonate of soda
- 1 cup butter (softened)
- 1½ cups light brown sugar (packed)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup milk Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup white Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F/ 170C degrees.
- Grease and flour an 8 x 12 baking pan.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup dark chocolate chips on medium power in 30-second intervals until just melted.
- Sift the flour, Cocoa Powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder together into a large mixing bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl beat the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Mix in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla. Add melted chocolate and mix until combined.
- Mix in the flour mixture by hand until combined (this avoids a cake like consistency).
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Spread the dough into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, give the pan a little shake. If it jiggles in the middle, put the pan back in and try again every 5 minutes until there is no longer any jiggle.
