Food Friday: Congo Bars

These are basically a chocolate chip bar but they are delicious. This was our go to dessert/snack recipe growing up. When my brother and I moved out, I think it was the first recipe we both called home for.

Congo Bars

1 box brown sugar (16 oz)
3 eggs
1 stick of butter
2 2/3 cups sifted flour
1 Tbsp vanilla
1 cup nuts (optional - we never used them)
1 cup chocolate chips

Mix all together and bake in a sprayed pan at 350 degrees for 23-35 minutes. I usually bake this in a standard cake pan, my mom used a slightly smaller dish so the recipe is flexible.
