Instructions
Creating Strawberry White Chocolate Gooey Bars is a straightforward process. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not over-mix.
5. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
6. Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
8. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Cut into Squares: Once cooled, cut into squares and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
