These bars are delicious! I sprinkled mini chocolate chips and coconut on top for extra flavour! Watch that your oven isn’t too hot, or the bars will become too hard.

These were really delicious. I’d definitely recommend using only 1 cup of chocolate chips (as the recipe suggests.) You really want that cookie to shine through.
The almond extract is very interesting! It definitely comes through in the flavor of the cookie. I thought it was delicious, but if you aren’t a fan of almond flavor, I think you could easily substitute vanilla extract.
You could also sprinkle finely chopped pecans on top, before you sprinkle on the chocolate chips.

I’ve made these at least 3 times. I love them, and they have received rave review from my friends and family.
I used vanilla extract instead of almond and only used 1 cup of chocolate chips (semi-sweet).
These are best warm, and they reheat in the microwave really well.
Seeing the pictures from Ree’s blog post really helped, too.

I have made these several times and loved them.
They are a little different and delicious!

These are excellent quick desserts! I made mine with vanilla extract (I don’t care for almond extract) and pressed larger ghiradelli dark chocolate chips on top.
By the way, Sheryl, I used instant coffee powder – not prepared for my cookies and they turned out delicious.

This was a delicious treat! Easy to make and oh so yummy with a cup of coffee. I used vanilla extract and they were just perfect.

These were super easy to make and delicious! I made a batch for our food table at church, and the ones that made it there went quickly. The coffee flavor was nice and subtle… My dad hates coffee and I had to tell him what it was 
I will definitely make these again.

I just brought these down to my husband and he said, “OH my gosh, those look good.” They are delish. I used 1 1/2 cups of flour because the dough looked stiff, but I think I’ll use more next time. Thanks for posting!

Instant coffee powder or prepared instant coffee ?

I made a batch this afternoon – delicious. On 1/4 of the pan, I also sprinkle sweetened coconut before baking. Next time, I’ll add that to the whole pan. So good!

Just made these today and it was SOOOOO good! I added a little extra coffee and used a few slivered almonds on the top b/c I didn’t have the extract. I also replaced the almond extract with vanilla. Thanks so much for such a great new recipe!

thanks for the recipe, i made it today after seeing it on the blog. it was delicious! i also added a few chopped pecans on top for a little crunch

Made these today, they were a big hit. I used vanilla instead of the almond extract, 1 Tbl of the coffee granules and 1 cup of milk chocolate chips.
When asked if I should go with 2 Tbl coffee or 2 cups choc chips it was a unanimous NO, perfect as they were.
Thanks for a quick and simple cookie bar! Will make these again.

these are ridiculously good. My variations were to add vanilla in place of the almond flavoring and I added Heath Milk Chocolate bits and miniature chocolate chips on top. Oh my. They are so, so good. My husband and I both like the crispy edges…
Thank you.

I’m so sad! Somehow I screwed these up! They came out rock hard. Is it supposed to be baking POWDER or baking SODA? They turned out just like they would if I was supposed to use baking soda instead. Great flavor, just a tooth-breaking experience. Can anyone enlighten me?

These may be my new favorite treat. I just sampled the batch that I made to take to work tomorrow, and I think that they are insanely good. I made them exactly as written, used 1 T of instant coffee and 1 C of chocolate chips. (To the previous poster, I have no idea what went wrong with your batch, but I used baking powder.) So, so, so good. Thanks for the deliciousness.
