Coconut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

 

Some of our favorite cookies that I make are Way To A Man's Heart Cookies.  The ingredients in these cookies go so well together and are so delicious. My family devours them in just a few days. While looking at recipes the other day I took one look at these cookie bars and knew that I wanted to make them. Then I looked at the recipe and new why.... they are pretty much the same as our favorite cookies just in a different form and a couple of added ingredients. They didn't disappoint. I made them and took them to a friends for dinner and she said her aunt used to make them every Christmas and are a family favorite. She knows them as Hello Dolly's. Not sure what the original name is for these cookies, but I think they are going to become a family favorite at our house as well. :)
