When April from Abby Sweets asked  Barbara  from Barbara Bakes and myself  if we wanted to do ?12 weeks of Christmas cookies?, how could I say no? 

There is always so many new cookies I want to try and what perfect time to ?research? a new batch of cookies a week till Christmas.Then we?ll  see which one?s make it to the Christmas Cookie Platter this year!

 Week one! 

Chocolate Almond Coconut Bars.

This is actually a Macaroon Bar recipe I made before,  but this time I added almond extract. It was perfect with the coconut and the chocolate and brought this macaroon bar to a new level. I just wished I had put some toasted sliced almonds on the top. But you can! Just give these easy bars a try!
