Ingredients:
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 yellow cake mix (15.25 oz)
1 bag (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the bars after baking.
Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and eggs until well blended. Add the yellow cake mix to the bowl and stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Prepare the Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan, reaching all the corners.
Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set. Be careful not to overbake to ensure the bars stay soft and chewy.
Cool and Cut: Allow the cookie bars to cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut into squares or rectangles of your desired size.
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Lazy Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars as is, or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for an extra special treat.
