Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350º. Grease a 9”x 13” baking pan.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter. Pour the melted butter into a large bowl. In a small bowl, separate the eggs, reserving the whites for the glaze. Add the sugars, vanilla, salt, baking soda, baking powder, 2 egg yolks, water and flour to form a stiff dough. Spread the dough into the prepared baking pan. Spread the chocolate chips evenly over the dough.

Glaze: In a small bowl, beat the 2 egg whites into the brown sugar. Pour the glaze over the bars. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes.

Store the bars in a sealed container or cake safe. These will stay fresh for 3 to 4 days. Makes 2 dozen bars.
