Championship Chocolate Chip Bars

I haven't made these for a while, and thought I'd do that today. Here are the steps with pix for Championship Chocolate Chip Bars.

Gather the ingredients - the recipe and directions are below.

Combine flour and brown sugar, then cut in butter or margarine till crumbly. Add 1/2 cup chocolate chips.













Press this mixture into a 9 x 13 baking dish, and bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 15 minutes.










In same bowl, while crust is baking, combine sweetened condensed milk, egg, vanilla.










Mix in the rest of the chocolate chips and chopped nuts.

This is what it looks like when it's all mixed together.












When crust is done baking, spread mixture over crust, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.













Let cool to room temperature and cut into squares. Store covered at room temperature.
