Almond Roca Bars

These Almond Roca Bars are soft, almond flavored cookie bars topped with rich chocolate and almonds. I’ve been obsessed over chocolate lately. More than normal. There is some force of nature drawing me to anything chocolate.
My husband and I were at Burger-Fi on a date and as we sat down I said, “I smell chocolate.” In a burger joint the smell seemed out of place but sure enough WAY across the room a boy was unwrapping a chocolate bar.
