Excellent! I've been baking these since I was a kid, for probably 35 years, and our Betty Crocker cookbook is worn out! A family favorite for sure. I like to roll/pat them out on a flat cookie sheet about a 1/4 thick, because when you get a little crisper cookie along the outside edges, they really resemble toffee. (Your rectangle will not be perfect.) I use 3-4 hershey bars broken into squares, they melt beautifully. Then you can score the cookies with a knife while chocolate is still melted, or just allow them to set up, it takes a few hours for chocolate to firm up again. (I would not recommend putting them in fridge to firm up.) I just break them up into more rustic pieces. Best eaten same day.

These bars are so easy to make, the first time I made them I had trouble melting the chocolate so instead I used Nutella and then sprinkled with 2 chopped up heath bars and some walnuts. my family adores them and I enjoy making them :)

I have my mom's Betty Crocker that I grew up learning from. It is missing the entire cover, the index passed C and it is torn in half and missing a small chunk around the tear from. 385 to 415. I checked and it is from 1965! Anyway this recipe is in there and was our must have holiday cookie recipe my entire. Childhood. I searched for it because I have the pieces of the Betty Crocker now and my mom asked me to email it so I just thought I'd see and here it is! The only difference is that mine uses a GREASED pan and calls for a 3.5 ounce chocolate bar. I remember being allowed to put the squares of chocolate on the hot bar as a little girl. Anyway this very long post is my way of saying that I love this recipe, it is tried and true and it also hold warm memories of being in the kitchen with my mom. Love you Betty Crocker company!
