Fabulous! Made these this afternoon, was very easy and took practically no time at all. The only change from the original recipe was that I used semi-sweet chocolate chips and baked it 30 mins after adding the final layer as suggested in the reviews. DELICIOUS! Thank you so much for posting. A new favorite.

I was in the mood to bake and didn't have any vanilla but I did have some caramel apple dip leftover. These were very good and rich. My husband said he wanted to eat the whole thing in one sitting. I halved the recipe and made it in an 8x8 pan. Yummy!

WOW YUMMY! Can't rate this one less than a fiver! EXTREMELY RICH...I suggest cutting the tray into 24 pieces I used butter instead of margarine and also only had a 12 ounce bag of chocolate chips, but otherwise followed to a T. Suggestion: I would not use more than a 12 ounce bag...these are very, very chocolatey (a GOOD thing)! These were easy to make, too, so 5 stars all around. Thanks for posting...will be making these often. P.S. Posted a picture that absolutely cannot show how yummy these are!

Yum! My family loved these bars. The bars were very rich, very sweet, and very good. I used a bag of milk chocolate chips (that's what was on hand) and I think that I will try semi sweet chips the next time. That will be soon because my son keeps asking me to make these again.
