I was flipping through old cookbooks trying to find a recipe that I have never made. Well I have never made these or even heard of them but the recipe sounded good, so I gave it a try. It’s VERY good!!!! Nice shortbread crust with a soft chocolate topping.
Very easy to make. I used a dark chocolate bar, but I think milk chocolate would be just as good. I may even see how it turns out with chocolate chips next time.
