It’s December 1st–a good time to kick of the holiday baking season. ย This year, my goal is to have a lot of different things made ahead. ย So, whenever that spur of the moment get together happens, I have something fun, festive and yummy to serve or bring with!
Today, I decided on Chocolate Revel Bars. ย With all the baking sales this time of year, the ingredients are all things you’re likely to have on hand.

I’m sure there are quite a few versions of this recipe floating around. I got mine from my mother-in-law and tweaked it just a little.ย These cookie bars are super easy to make and have NO white sugar! ๐Ÿ™‚ ย But, have enough butter and brown sugar to make them ridiculously unhealthyย tasty.ย 

Simply mix up your batter and spread two-thirds of it into a bar/jelly roll pan…

Mix up the chocolate and spread it all over…

Dot the chocolate with the remaining batter mixture…

Bake for 25 minutes at 350; remove and let cool for at least 10 minutes…

ย Cut, serve, and revelย in your yummy creation (sorry, I couldn’t resist!)…

And, the best part (besides the gooey, rich deliciousness) is that they can be frozen for at least a month to serve later. ย So, I cut two small rows from the bar pan that our family can enjoy this week. ย But, we have two gallon size baggies filled with these for later this month! ย If you are going to freeze, it’s best to freeze them in large sections wrapped in foil. ย Then, when you need them, thaw & cut into bites.

  1. I have heard of these but have never tried them. Now that I know they can be frozen, I will have to give them a try. ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for linking them up!

  2. I always freeze my fresh cookie dough into ready to bake balls. I bake the frozen balls as if they were fresh. I like this because I only bake 3 or 4 cookies at a time and they are always fresh and if I am in a pickle and need to take something with me, I can always take cookies.
