Yummy! Chocolate peanut butter is my fave flavour combo!! And, this recipe was so quick and easy to make! I did bake in the suggested 9 X 13 pan - the dough didn't entirely cover the chocolate filling but I liked how it looked peeking through. This recipe is very sweet and rich - just the way a dessert should be. I made this recipe last week to enter in the county fair category "Dessert (other than a cake) made with commercial cake mix" - I placed second!

    This was a great, easy to make recipe. I had all the ingredients on hand. I followed Lil Sis's suggestion to use an 8 x 8 pan and baked it for 25 minutes. I used half the dough for the bottom layer, and then I patted pieces of dough kind of flat and pieced them together for the top to create one even layer of dough. That was the only way I could do it without smooshing all of the chocalate around! I will be making this again! thanks for the great recipe.

    These bars taste great, but I think next time I will bake them in a smaller pan to get a thicker chocolate filling and also a thicker crust. I didn't have much batter left after covering the bottom of a 9x13 pan so the top was marbled like others have noted. Very easy to throw together and very easy to keep eating too!!

    Delightfully rich, especially liked them warm and a little on the doughy side. Bake them too long and they do tend to dry out. Yummy!
