Lucky Clover Cookie Bars (Printable Version)

Chewy bars filled with chocolate chips and green sprinkles, ideal for festive celebrations.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
03 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

04 - 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
05 - 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
06 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
07 - 2 large eggs
08 - 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

→ Add-ins & Toppings

09 - 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
10 - 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
11 - 1/4 cup green sprinkles or sanding sugar
12 - 1/2 cup green chocolate candies, optional
13 - Clover-shaped sprinkles, optional for decoration

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
03 - In a large bowl, whisk melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and combined.
04 - Add eggs and vanilla extract to the wet mixture, whisking until well incorporated.
05 - Gradually fold in the dry ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
06 - Gently stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and half of the green sprinkles, plus green candies if using.
07 - Spread dough evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining green sprinkles, green candies, and clover-shaped sprinkles on top.
08 - Bake for 23 to 26 minutes, or until bars are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
09 - Allow to cool completely in the pan before lifting out and cutting into 16 bars.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • They come together in one bowl with melted butter, so there's barely any cleanup between mixing and baking.
  • The combination of semi-sweet and white chocolate chips with green sprinkles tastes like pure celebration without tasting overly sweet or artificial.
  • You can have warm bars cooling in your pan while you're still cleaning up your mixing bowl.
02 -
  • Don't skip the cooling step—cutting warm bars will make them crumbly and the sprinkles will fall off.
  • If your oven runs hot, check at 20 minutes; overbaked bars turn dry quickly and lose that perfect chewy center.
03 -
  • If your bars seem to be browning too quickly around the edges, tent them loosely with foil for the last 5 minutes of baking.
  • The trick to keeping them chewy overnight is storing them with a slice of bread in the airtight container—it sounds odd, but it works and keeps them from drying out.
