| 1. Pre-heat over to 350°. | 2. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom of the pan. Butter the paper. | 3. In a mixing bowl with a wooden spoon, cream the butter. | 4. Add the granulated sugar a little at-a-time until it is well blended. | 5. Beat in the egg yolks and vanilla. | 6. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. | 7. Stir the dry mixture into the butter mixture a littlt-at-a-time until it is incorporated. The dough will be sticky. | 8. Place 2/3's of the dough in the pan. Using your fingers press it into an even layer. Flour your hands as you work. Prick the dough all over with a fork. | 9. Sprinkle the chocolate chips (or pieces) over the dough to within 1/4" of the edges. | 10. Place clumps of the remaining dough around the perimeter of the chocolate, making a 1/2" border. Then scatter the remaining dough clumps to fill in the rectangle. You will still be able to see chocolate through the dough. | 11. With a lightly floured hand, pat the clumps gently all over to flatten them slightly. | 12. Sprinkle the dough lightly with the granulated sugar. | 13. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top of the pastry is pale golden. | 14. Remove the pan from the oven and set it on a wire rack to cool. | 15. Cover the pan with foil and refrigerate just until the chocolate sets. | 16. Remove from the refrigerator and cut the pastry into bars, making 3 horizontal cuts and 4 vertical cuts. | 17. Lift our the bars and sprinkle them with confectioners' sugar, and stack on a serving plate. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
