1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring it overhangs on the sides for easy removal.
2
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the light brown sugar and stir until smooth.
3
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the creamy peanut butter. Allow the mixture to cool.
4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
5
Once the butter mixture has cooled, stir in the eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
6
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix to create a thick, dough-like batter.
7
Fold in 2/3 of the semi-sweet chocolate chunks.
8
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, spreading it evenly to the edges.
9
Sprinkle the remaining semi-sweet chocolate chunks evenly over the batter, lightly pressing them in.
10
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the edges are slightly browned.
11
Allow the bars to cool in the pan.
12
Using the parchment paper, lift the bars from the pan before cutting them into 9 squares.
13
Serve the Chocolate Dream Peanut Butter Bars and store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
