DIRECTIONS

1. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position. Preheat oven to 325° F. Line a 9″ x 13″ baking pan with heavy-duty foil, letting the excess hang over the edges of the pan on the long sides of the pan. Lightly spray the foil-lined pan with non-stick spray.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, corn starch, and baking soda; set aside.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and sugar until combined. Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, and whisk until well combined. With a rubber spatula, fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture. When about half-way combined, add chocolate chips and continue to fold until just combined. Do not over mix.
4. Transfer mixture to prepared pan. This will be very thick. Press evenly into pan using the spatula and/or your fingertips.
5. Bake for about 25 to 28 minutes or so, or until the top is light golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. For the chewiest bars, do not over bake.  Remove pan to cool to room temperature. Lift bars from pan using the foil overhangs. Transfer to cutting board and cut into squares with a knife
