Almond Chocolate Bar

Almond Chocolate Bar

I waited for so many days to make this and today I made it..It came exactly how I wanted it to turn out..Original recipe calls for walnuts but I used cashew and almond and still it came so yummy...The bars were crisp on the bottom and extremely chocolaty over the top...If you have some dark chocolate chips,you could skip the cocoa and add that too..This recipe is modified from Yummy O Yummy Blog..So please try this and let me know what you think..
