For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter. To prevent the chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom, toss them with a tablespoon of flour before folding them into the batter. For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter. These bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months. Dust with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant touch.
