Aunt Betty's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars by Carolinaheartstrings

To be honest with you, my aunt’s recipe was chocolate chip cookies, not bars, but I decided to make them into bars one evening when I wanted something sweet and did not want to bake endless pans of cookies (her recipe makes about 70 cookies).
