Very Delicious

I brought these for a school function and they were gone quick! I had made them the week before and found that they got hard and stale very fast so I made them the night before and carefully secured them. They stayed moist and delicious!

This was very easy to make. But my whole family and myself thought it was very dry and not good as your usual recipes are.

Easy and Good

This recipe is very easy to make and very good. It didn't last very long because my family ate it so quickly. I will be making it again.

Not my favorite

by K. Katie , South Easton, MA on Apr. 2010

The pics looked so good and I thought I would really enjoy it...however, it was disappointing in my families' eyes. We thought it was too dry : (

not as good as i would have expected. Good fresh but got old over night. Next time i might also try bittersweet chips on top and maybe some vanilla or butter extract.

A keeper

My neighbor wannted something for her bunco group, it needed to be enough to feed the gruop. This was perfect!! They said it was the perfect dessert. It was an elite group. They thought she went to a special bakery had it made just for them. There is some truth to that... Thanks again for another great / easy recipe.

I had bought mini morsels and I wanted something easy to make. Great recipe. Beats cutting the shortbread cookies by a cutter.

Awesome!

Ok, I have to add to the wonderful reviews I already read to say, "Wow...another great shortbread recipe!" These bars melt in your mouth! I love the combination of shortbread and chocolate. These do not disappoint. Mine did not puff up like the picture...maybe with more batter, but they flattened out more since they are baked in a 9x13 pan. Still delicious...the perfect bite of shortbread and chocolate!

GReat!

These cookies were so delicious!The recipe was really easy to follow. I loved putting the chocolate chips on top of the cookies to create the topping. The texture was fantastic, and these are my all time favorite cookies~
