Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Bars

Another great recipe from here in France!  I modified it just slightly based on ingredients I had on hand.  Again, I plan to make this again once I'm back home to compare--it's very good, everyone here has been enjoying it :)

Ingredients:

2 1/2 c. all-purpose flour (I used 1 1/2 c. of type 55 and 1 c. of type 65)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
slightly more than 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 1/4 c. salted butter (I only had unsalted, so I added just over 1/2 tsp. to it), melted
1 1/2 c. light brown sugar, packed
1/2 c. sugar
2 eggs at room temperature
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 c. rolled (old-fashioned) oats
1 1/4 c. chocolate chips, divided

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 375°F.  Lightly grease and flour a 9" x 13" baking dish (I used glass).

2. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.  Set aside.

3. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and sugar.

4. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla.

5. Stir in the oats.

6. Stir in the reserved flour mixture gradually, followed by 1 cup of the chocolate chips.

7. Spread mixture into prepared baking dish and transfer to oven.  Bake for 30 min, or until center is set.  Let cool in pan, serve, and enjoy!
