This is a nice, delicious bar that is easy to make! Just make sure to butter the pan and SIDES well. I put chopped toffee candy bars and pecans on top with the melted chocolate and I let them cool completely before cutting them with a sharp knife.

I make these bars every Christmas - but instead of milk chocolate and pecans (which is good too!) I used white chocolate chips - let them melt and spread. And then I sprinkle with dried cranberries and diced walnuts for a festive look.

My mom also made these every Christmas. Thanks for posting it! I use milk chocolate chips - 8 oz. bag - the best quality I can find. I also am committed to using a stoneware bar pan to bake them much more evenly. Believe me, it makes a huge difference! Finally, I cut them into diamond shapes for a elegant presentation on the plate.

Tasty, but not what I was expecting. I thought these would be chewy, however they were actually crunchy (like a cookie) once they cooled. They should be called Toffee Cookies. :) Great toffee flavor. As soon as the choloate has melted and been spread you are going to want to cut these into squares. Once they have cooled they harden and it is difficult to cut them apart without breaking them and causing lots of crumbs. Make sure you grease your pan REALLY well too!!

Mmmmmmm! I made these today for our Sunday School class tomorrow, and I wasn't sure what to expect. They were so easy and taste so good! They taste exactly like a toffee candy bar. It's good I made another dessert also because we wouldn't have enough left to take to class! I will definitely be making this easy and delicious bar again. I might make it in a 9x13 pan next time because they came out too thin in my opinion for a bar. That's the only thing I'd change! I did use some chocolate chips and some Hershey's dark Bliss pieces, and spreaded all together.

If I could give this recipe 10 stars I would! This is by-far the best recipe I've tried so far on this website. They were a hit on Father's Day, and everyone that ate one asked for the recipe. Way to go!

An outstanding beyond easy recipe. My husband LOVED them. They are very rich and a small serving goes a long way. I doubled the recipe for a jelly roll pan and they turned out great!

AWESOME! My sister and I made these bars using this recipe and we loved them. They are very easy to make and they make a lot of bars. These bars are very rich so I cut them into small triangles. I had many people asking me for the recipe.
