Notes
*Set aside whole candy hearts to press on top of unbaked bars if desired. I used Hershey's Strawberry crème filled chocolate hearts, any variety will work.
*Set aside a handful of chocolate chips to sprinkle on top
*Bars will be fudgy, allow to cool completely before slicing for best results.
