This is one of our Grandmas cookie square recipes and is a family favourite.
It is a very easy no-bake recipe and comes together in about 10 minutes.
They do freeze very well, but ours never make it to the freezer – if you make a double batch you might be able to keep some on hand.
Enjoy!

This is one of my very favourite cookies. It's made just like shortbread with a longer slower cook in a single pan you cut into bars so has that firmer bite, but it also has a good helping of chopped chocolate to satisfy the chocolate lover. Delicious!Makes 24...

This has been my go to recipe since the ’90.
I’m dating myself but I don’t care.
These are the best.
I made the mistake of trying a different recipe last time and what a disaster. They were wayyy tooo sweet.
Never again will I stray.
Glad you love these as much as I do, so simple and so yummy:))
