How to Make White Chocolate Bars
Ingredients
- Melted butter, 225g or 1 cup (make sure it’s cooled down)
- Brown sugar or demerara sugar, 340g or 1¾ cups (light is better)
- Two eggs
- All-purpose or plain flour, 285g or 2 cups
- White chocolate chips, 100g or ½ cup
Directions

- Whisk the sugar and eggs together in a medium-sized bowl until well blended.
- Slowly pour in the cooled melted butter while stirring the egg mixture.
- Stir in the flour until it’s fully mixed in. The batter will get super thick.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips, making sure they’re spread out evenly.
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan, smooth the surface, and if you want, sprinkle some sea salt on top.
- Bake for 25 minutes until the edges are firm, and the top is golden.
- Leave it to cool completely in the tin before lifting it out and slicing it into 9 pieces.
How to Serve White Chocolate Bars
You can serve the white chocolate bars warm or at room temperature. They are great on their own or can be paired with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee for a perfect afternoon treat!
How to Store White Chocolate Bars
Store the white chocolate bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want them to last longer, you can refrigerate them for up to two weeks. Just make sure to let them come back to room temperature before serving for the best flavor.
Tips to Make White Chocolate Bars
- Make sure the melted butter is cooled before adding it to the eggs to avoid cooking them.

- Feel free to add nuts or dried fruits to the batter for extra flavor and texture.
Variation
You can substitute white chocolate chips with milk or dark chocolate chips for a different flavor. Adding a pinch of vanilla extract can also elevate the taste.
