Cheryl's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars



My mom would make these bars a lot when I was a little girl and I LOVED them. She got the recipe from her good friend Cheryl. I had forgotten about this recipe until I went home for a visit this last month and my sister made them for our lunch. They were so good, even better than I remembered. I went home and made them the next day! I guess you could say these are basically Blondies, but around these parts we call them chocolate chip cookie bars!
