A wonderful bar cookie. This was devoured at a potluck and gor rave reviews. It won a blue ribbon at the county fair and was overall a good cookie.

Wow, did this turn out greasy. Just out of morbid curiosity, I tested the base with my cake tester and it came out clean even before it was baked. The flavor was wonderful with 1/3c instant coffee mixed in the the flour and the chocolate chips melted over the top, but I couldn't get over that greasiness. Next time I'll use a regular chocolate chip pan cookie base with the added coffee and save the chocolate chips for the top.

Absolutely delicious and easy to make. I used semi-sweet chocolate chips as I had no candy bars. The idea of sprinkling actual ground coffee seemed strange, but the taste is bewitching. Only problem is that the top is dusty and the walnuts don't stick even though I pressed them in. Maybe it would work better to pre-melt the chocolate and mix the coffee in with the melted chocolate, then spread it over the cookie base and sprinkle on the walnuts.

Flavor was good....but texture was terrible. I'll try this again, but I'll make very strong coffee instead of using coffee grounds.

I read the reviews and used 1/4 cup coffee granules in with the flour as suggested, instead of the grounds on top. I also reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup. And oh my, these are to die for! I won't be making them too often as my husband and I would be in danger of getting enormously fat!

I gave these as a gift in a coffee gift basket and my bro-in-law loved them. Let the bars cool completely before cutting. I had problems with the chocolate seperating. I think I was in too much of a hurry. Definitely stir in the coffee with the flour. And make sure it is really finely ground.

The coffee grounds (how you're suppost to add them) gives it the wrong texture, the cookie base collaspes and because of that when spreading the chocolate, it tears the unstable cookie base.

These are delicious and easy to make. They are definately only for the coffee lover. I melted the chocolate in the microwave and stirred the ground coffee in with the chocolate.

I tweeked this recipie quite a bit. I added egg beaters equal to two eggs, and added 1/4 cup of instant coffee to the dough instead of adding coffee grounds to the top of it. I've had recipes with coffee grounds and I don't care for them. The bars tasted good, but next time I will use regular chocolate frosting instead of the chocolate chips. My family loved them.

Good!!!! I decided to put the ground coffee into the actual batter which worked out really really well!!! But... i think next time i will either use instant coffee so that the coffee will deissolve or espresso powder!!!! I definitely recommend this for coffee lovers!!!!

FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT,.. I used about 1 tbsp. Bailey's Irish cream instead of vanilla. Also I tossed the chocolate chips with a bit of bailey's and the coffee (I used less than was recommended) before spreading on the crust. I will definetly make these again but I'll use chocolate bars instead of chips because they did not melt very well and made the topping kind of lumpy. These squares mail beautifully!

Wow! I absolutely love this recipe. I have made it many times since I found it and it has been a hit in multi age groups. My daughters love them as does my husband. I find it is great as a take along for carry- ins and snacks since they travel well. I use a nice flavored ground coffee that I get from the grocery (I use less than the recipe calls for) and grind it fresh and also use chocolate chips instead of the bars. They melt quickly and spread nicely. I wonder if these freeze well?

I've made this recipe several times now...and everyone loves it! I have adapted it just a bit, though. I found when putting the coffee in with the chocolate, it gave the chocolate a texture that made it seem crystalized. For coffee lovers, it wasn't a huge deal, but the next time I put the coffee in the cookie batter instead...and it came out perfect! Also, as several other people mentioned previously, I used chocolate chips instead of candy bars and put it back in the oven until the chocolate was spreadable.

Chocolate didn't firm up sitting on counter before cutting, so I put it in the fridge for about 1/2hr. Worked great.

The first time I tried this recipe the crust was very greasy. The second time I tried it the crust was a little better, but not much. Then after the cookie cooled and I cut into them the chocolate did not stay on the cookie crust. I would never make these again.

This was my first cookie bar i made and it was very easy. Im not a big fan of coffee so i just sprinkled a litle on 1/2 of the dish. I also used a package of chocolate chips instead of the candy bars. The chocolate didn't melt after i took the cookies out of the oven so after the chocolate was completly cooled i put it in the oven so it would melt more and it workd fine. WILL make AgAiN!!!

I love coffee and chocolate, so this was a winner. You can use a 12-oz bag or semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of the chocolate bars, and it works wonderfully!

This was quick and easy but the coffee flavor was too strong when I used 1/3 cup ground Dunkin Donuts French Vanilla. I would recommend more chocolate and less ground coffee. People at work loved it anyway!
