Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

  2. Lightly butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan.

  3. In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla until well combined.

  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.

  6. Stir in 2 cups of chocolate chips.

  7. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.

  8. Bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the edges are light brown and set.

  9. Allow the bars to cool slightly.

  10. Preheat the broiler.

  11. Cover the cooled bars with marshmallows and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips over the top.

  12. Broil the bars, making sure they are at least 8 inches away from the heat source, until the marshmallows turn golden brown (approximately 2 minutes). Be careful to watch them closely and prevent burning.

  13. Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting them into squares using a sharp knife.
