When you said to "set some chocolate chips aside" I thought you were going to say, "so you can snack" LOL

My favorite part about this dude is, he just cooks for fun, not to get views, but to just help other people cook. Amazing. Keep doing what you do best!

I have at this point made edibles from quite a few of your recipes and everyone who tried them were very pleased with the results. Thank you John!!

"Let me know in the comments if you want the edge piece or the middle."
*I want the whole pan*

This recipe is my husband favorite, he requested every time. I noticed that because John lives in very very very cold place, he forgets about people baking in more warmer places. That’s why I ended up with my first attempt sinking in the middle and very tall on the edges (nothing that bothers my husband or I), but it definitely did not look like the pictures on johns Instagram. The second time I baked this I melted the butter with less heat so there’s a little of minuscule solid butter particles and at the end I put te batter in the fridge por 20 min so the batter wasn’t as runny or melted (more firm, just like the one in the video) . Still the cookie bar sunk a little but not as much as the first attempt

Your parchment paper is so neatly fit in the pan, can you do a video on how you do that? Mine s always such a hot mess.

For me as a father and love making cookies and cake, this video make me have a great ideas for my kids. Thank you very much.

Let's get this man to 1M subs, he deserved his hard working and dedication to cooking. I love every moment of Preppy Kitchen's cooking videos.

My husband and I were craving some bars but didn't want much and didn't to have leftovers so I halved this recipe (food scale is my friend). I baked it in a 9x5 loaf pan for 30 minutes. I checked on it at 20 minutes and the edges were done but the middle wasn't so I covered it with aluminum for the last 10 minutes. PERFECTION! It was more than enough for us and our son.

Watching this in bed when I just started trying to eat healthier...

And now I am reconsidering 😂🤣

[ihsanseman]

I just baked this and it is probably the best thing I’ve ever made, and I’ve been baking for 2 years. It’s like taking a bite into a super thick and moist cookie. Thank you for this recipe!

[rymaracabre]

There's something so satisfying with the way you lift the cooked cookie bar from the pan with no residue or whatsoever. I'm excited to make this soon.

[rekasajgo]

I love that you give the measurements in grams too. It is so helpful for us who live in Europe where measuring cups are not common :)

[staceyverley]

My husband falls more and more in love with me the more of your incredible treats I make!! I believe this cookie bar just sent him over the top! Lol! Thanks John! ❤

[aegisabyss]

Sir, you are like a bright sunny day. Every time I watch one of your videos, my day gets so much better. Please don't EVER change! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. (And I like that even when you make a little goof-like I saw in some of your other videos-you keep it in there. Thank you! That is most enjoyable to see, because it shows you can still have fun and things will still turn out so long as its not a Big oops.) Have a great day-thanks again!
