Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened 2 sticks
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips Can substitute with dark or milk chocolate
  • 1 cup shredded coconut Unsweetened coconut flakes are an option

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 13×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and toffee bits until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Pour the dough into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly, making sure to reach the corners.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cooling and Cutting
  1. Allow the bars to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before lifting them out using the parchment paper.
  2. Let them cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Notes

You can store the cooled bars in an airtight container for up to one week at room temperature. These bars can be frozen for up to three months. To reheat, microwave a piece for 10-15 seconds or pop them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes.
