I decided to make these for Father's Day because my hubby loves cookie cakes and I wanted something similar but different. Very yummy! I used a 9x9 and also had longer cooking time but I am sure due to the different pan sizes, ovens we use, and altitudes, that cooking tme will always vary. Can't wait to make these again, as always, Giada doesn't disappoint:

Contrary to some of the other reviewers, I found that my cookie to chocolate ration was totally equal. I also needed to cook my dough closer to 17-20 minutes to get it golden brown. I made the mistake of not pushing my cookie dough down flat enough around the edges so it made a lip around the entire thing. Cute to look at but those pieces were a bit doughier. The mascarpone really lightened up what could easily have been too rich. I found that 1/4 cup of almonds was slightly overpowering in an 11x7 pan. I ended up not tasting the Heath topping too much because of it. Next time I would go a little less to bring out the Heath topping more. (I didn't buy the Heath chopped up, I just grabbed 2 bars and hand chopped it. It's basically the difference between Nestle's version and Hershey's version

These were great! I also had to cook my sugar cookie dough a bit longer - 20-25 minutes to get it nice light brown. I could not find any toffee bits and i didnt really know what they were so i used snickers bars cut up into tiny pieces. they came out great! I have just found some Heath toffee bits in the shops and bought a bag to try the "proper" recipe. But if it tastes anything like the first one - fantastic! I let it sit overnight in the fridge and dipped the knife in hot water to get a clean cut. Had no problems at all. Great recipe!

My cookie dough base took closer to 15 minutes to cook. The chocolate marscarpone mixture could have been thicker. There ended up being more cookie base than chocolate on top. Like other viewers, I think I would prefer a Heath Bar crumbled instead of a Skor bar. Kids liked it but I wouldn't call it a keeper. Sorry Giada

Was expecting more from a 5 star recipe. Okay for quick dessert. Would make my own sugar cookie dough. I taste the store bought component in the cookie base. I would also recommend the heath chips instead of skor bar.

Holy cow these were awesome!!! The chocolate mascarpone mixture is going to become my go to when I need something creamy and chocolatey to put on anything! I had to bake the sugar cookie layer a little longer than it said, but other than that everything was perfect!
