2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

How to make Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Using cooking spray, lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch pan. Or you simply line the pan with parchment paper.
Step 2: Place the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat well until smooth and light. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating well every after each addition. Next, add the vanilla.
Step 3: Place the dry ingredients (salt, baking soda, baking powder, flour, and rolled oats) in another bowl. Mix well until combined.
Step 4: To the creamed mixture, add the dry ingredients and mix well until blended. Then, fold in the chocolate chips.
Step 5: Into the prepared pan, pour and press the mixture. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the bar is golden brown.
Step 6: Remove from the oven when done and let the bar cool completely before cutting into bars.
Notes:
Once the cookie bar is completely cooled, cut it into squares. In a freezer-safe container or Ziplock bag, place the bars and freeze for up to 3 months.
