Chris' Chocolate Chip Coffee Bars

I got this recipe from a friend in the early 70's, and have been making them for years... I don't like coffee, but I sure love these delicious bars! This is one of those recipes that everyone LOVES... A cross between a Chocolate Chip Cookie and a Congo Bar with a slight coffee flavor, and not cakey at all... VERY GOOD! Serving size depends how big or small you cut them.
