  1. Cream the butter together with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until a brown crumbly mixture forms.

  2. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and mix until fully incorporated.

  3. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, then fold in the chocolate chips to create a thick, chunky dough.

  4. Spread the dough evenly into a rectangular baking pan, smoothing the surface.

  5. Bake until the edges are set and the center is just set, then let cool before cutting into bars.
