  1. These turned out very well. I did follow the comments of the other poster and made sure it was refrigerated long enough before slicing. Makes a nice sweet bar cookie. Definitely not something you can eat a lot of due to the sweetness but I can see this being a huge winner on holiday cookie trays and giving away as gifts as you can cut them into a nice size and still have plenty to share. Made for Potluck Tag Game :)
     
  2. This was very good. I think I may not have left it in the fridge long enough because my layers came apart on some of them. Or maybe the chocolate chips were too hot when I spread them. Regardless, the bars were good. Very sweet. Made and Reviewed for Every Day Holiday Tag - Thanks! :)
