Yummy Cookie Bars

I received this recipe from a special co-worker at school, and it is always a huge success when I make them. It works great to make them a day in advance. It will allow the bars to set and be cut easier.

    Very good and easy to make. I used all semisweet chocolate chips (my family isn't big on peanut butter), and the topping was chocolatey, rich and creamy - delicious! I also flattened small balls of the remaining dough for the top to give it a neat polka dotted look. I will be making this for an upcoming church social this weekend :)

    I have made these Yummy Cookie Bars several times and everybody who has sampled them has simply raved over them. One of the best new recipes that I have tried and so very simple to make with ingredients that are always on hand. Five Star Recipe.
