Molly sold 60 - 20 = <<60-20=40>>40 candy bars.
Molly sold the candy bars over 5 - 12 = <<5-12=-7>>-7 hours.
Molly sold 40 / -7 = <<40/-7=-5.714285714285714>>-5.71 bars per hour. Answer: \boxed{-5.71}.

To find how many bars Molly sold per hour, we need to find the total number of bars she sold and divide it by the total number of hours.
From 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., there are 5 hours.
Molly started with 60 bars and ended with 20 bars, so she sold 60 - 20 = 40 bars.
Therefore, Molly sold 40 bars / 5 hours = <<40/5=8>>8 bars per hour. Answer: \boxed{8}.
