Coffeebreak Cookie Bars

From Hershey's Kitchens. Have you ever visited their site? Oh my....yummy stuff they got going on there.
(click their link for recipe)
You know things are going to be okay when you start with 2 of these big guys and chop them up to smithereens.
The recipe actually said to use six 1.55 oz bars, but I did a little math and decided this would be the cheaper way to go, and pretty much the same amount of chocolate. Boy did my brain hurt after trying to do multiplication without a calculator or even a piece of paper in the middle of the store.
They also said to use a "vanilla drizzle" to which I said "PFFT!" We're going chocolate all the way with this thing.
Ah, perfect end of the day snack. Except for the part where I sucked a piece of coconut down my trachea.

Chocolate is defnitely the way to go with this. i sure could go for one right now with a hot cup of coffee!

Sorry to hear about the coconut and your trachea, that's never pleasant. These look like the perfect thing to fix that chocolate craving. I support your choice for milk chocolate in place of white...maybe they had a moment of temporary insanity when they wrote out the recipe!

I was hoping for some coffee in that coffee break bars. Guess I could always add some, huh? I would have nixed the vanillla drizzle too. Chocolate all the way!

Hershey's Kitchen IS a fun site to visit. I'm glad you're okay after sucking down a piece of coconut, but I laughed when read it. Sounds like something I'd do!

These bars look so very good. Yummm...can just imagine lingering over a hot cup of coffee with one of these.

I do the same thing at the store. Trying to figure out the cheaper way to go. Much easier at the grocery store. Just check the price tag on the sheld.

These look awesome. I'm suffering here trying not to eat a snack so late. Not helping.

Would it be ok to just take the whole thing out of the pan and eat it that way?
