Tips:

Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
Measure your ingredients accurately: Baking is a science, so it's important to measure your ingredients accurately. This will ensure that your cookies turn out the way they're supposed to.
Use quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your cookies will taste. So don't skimp on the butter, sugar, or chocolate chips.
Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The temperature of your oven will affect the way your cookies turn out. Make sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking.
Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until they're set around the edges but still soft in the center.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you're sure to bake delicious Park Avenue bars that will impress your friends and family. So preheat your oven and get started!
