Our wonderful attendance secretary brought these to school during her week to provide treats. Thank goodness we have 4 minute passing periods because it gave me just enough time to run to the faculty room and grab a few! (I have not made this yet so comments and suggestions are very much appreciated.)

CHOCOLATE ALMOND ROCA BAR
My colleague Grace made up these these wonderful gift boxes of goodies including this recipe. These are so good and when I found out how easy they are to make, I was sold! Personally I like to use semi sweet chocolate chips, but that is personal preference. Split you wafers before placing in the pan but fit them tightly together--the grahams that split to approx 1x2 inches are ideal, but cut them to the size you like. After you have made the almond roca and cooled the tray, put it in the freezer for only 10 minutes to really solidify the chocolate. Then remove from freezer and flip the whole tray so you can see where the graham wafer splits are. It is then very easy to just slice gently with a knife and you get perfect cut pieces. I store mine in a tin box in the fridge, but if you have chocoholics they won't last so just put them out on a plate!

Tips:
- Use a food processor to finely crush the graham crackers. This will help to create a smooth and even crust.
- Be sure to use unsalted butter in the crust. This will help to prevent the crust from being too salty.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the graham crackers by placing them in a large zip-top bag and using a rolling pin to crush them.
- To make the crust extra special, add a teaspoon of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the graham cracker crumbs.
- Be sure to chill the crust for at least 30 minutes before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- When making the filling, be sure to use room temperature cream cheese. This will help to make the filling smooth and creamy.
- If you don't have almond extract, you can use vanilla extract instead.
- Be sure to let the bars chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help to set the filling and make the bars easier to cut.
