Chocolate Chip Walnut Bars

How many hearts can you see?
A big hit! Just by looking at it you can tell it's really good and what more if you have a piece in your hand. First time to make bars and I'll make again and again, changing or adding ingredients more next time.  This Chocolate Chip and Walnut Bars is dapted from my cookbook Hmmm Baking. I don't have a square baking sheet, but I managed to cut them in bars. I used bitter-sweet chocolate chips and didn't add much sugar.

1 cup walnuts, chopped
100g unsalted butter (1 stick)
1/2 cup confectioners sugar
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons milk (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 180 ̊C(350 ̊F). Put the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat together until fluffy. Add  vanilla, milk, honey, and flour, mix until all incoporated. Fold in the walnuts and  chocolate chips. Press the mixture inot the prepared grease pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 - 25 30-40 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool in the pan, then cut into bars.

Have one :)
