Ingredients
For the Bars
- 2/3 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups packed brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
For the Topping
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
- 3 Tablespoons heavy cream
- 1/4 white chocolate melting wafers
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 pan with foil and spray it with nonstick baking spray.
- Beat the butter and sugar until creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat again.
- Stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt and slowly add to the butter mixture until a soft thick dough forms. Spread the mixture in the prepared pan.
- Bake for 30 minutes. Do not over bake. Remove and let cool completely. Lift the bars out of the pan using the edges of the foil.
- Place the chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds. Stir until melted and creamy. Spread on top of the bars evenly and let set. Cut into 30 bars.
- Melt the white chocolate melting wafers according to the package directions. Let cool slightly.
- Spoon the melted chocolate into a ziplock baggie and cut one tip off. Pipe "laces" onto the bars, so they resemble footballs. Let set. Store in a tightly sealed container.
