Chocolate Chip Angel Bars

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1 cup margarine
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup chopped pecans (I usually leave them out. They interupt the softness of the bar.)
• 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fareinheight. Grease an 8 by 8 inch baking pan.

2. 2

   Combine flour and baking soda in a medium bowl. Mix well.

3. 3

   In a seperate large bowl, use a mixer to blend the sugar and butter. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy.

4. 4

   Then, add the flour mixture, chocolate chips, and pecans if you decide to use them. Blend at a low speed until just mixed.

5. 5

   Transfer the dough into the cooking pan and level it out. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean, but the center is still soft.

6. 6

   Cut into bars and enjoy!
