Conga Bars

Conga bars were special treats my mom made when I was growing up. She made them for school bake sales and potlucks and my sisters and I went crazy for them. What can I say, we lived the life. 

It wasn't until I made them for friends in college that I realized the rest of the world called them blondies. Conga bars just sound cooler in my opinion. 

Conga Bars

     

Ingredients

2¾ cups flour

2½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

2/3 cup butter, softened

2 cups brown sugar

3 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1 package, 12 oz. chocolate chips, I used chunks

Directions

Preheat oven to 350° F.

In a medium size bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a mixer, combine the butter and sugar. Mix until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time and then vanilla. 

Slowly add in the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Coat a 9 x 13 inch pan with PAM, spread batter evenly in pan.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and set. 

Hope you like a little Conga in your life!
