Now here's a dessert bar that's certainly earned its stripes! Our potluck dessert recipe for Zebras is full of crunchy, chocolatey deliciousness that's sure to drive 'em wild! 

What You'll Need

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 cups (1 twelve-ounce package) semisweet chocolate chips, divided
  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts

What to Do

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.
     
  2. In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar; beat until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, vanilla, flour, and baking powder until well mixed.
     
  3. Melt 1 cup of the chocolate chips in the microwave or over low heat on the stove.
     
  4. Place half of the batter into a medium-sized bowl and stir in the melted chocolate. Spread evenly in a greased 9" x 13" baking pan.
     
  5. Drop tablespoons of the remaining batter over the chocolate batter and drag the blade of a butter knife through the batter to create zebra stripes. Sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chips and walnuts. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
     
  6. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
