I got this recipe from my mom. This is a melt in your mouth, simple recipe for bars w/ oats, chocolate & peanut butter. They are rich but so worth it! I get a craving for these and make them every other month. It says to take them to room temperature & then cut them - I think that's so they don't break as you cut them (and therefore look prettier). I think they taste great cold too so I don't always wait for them to get to room temp! Enjoy! Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter |
3 cups quick oats |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1 cup chocolate chips |
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter |
Directions:
1. Grease 9 square baking pan. 2. Melt butter in large saucepan over medium heat. 3. Add sugar & vanilla; melt & mix well. 4. Stir in oats. 5. Cook over low heat 2-3 minutes until well-blended. 6. Press 1/2 of mixture evenly into pan. 7. Melt chocolate chips over low heat. 8. Mix peanut butter with melted chocolate. 9. Spread PB/chocolate mixture evenly over oat mix in pan. 10. Crumble remaining oat mix over chocolate layer. Press in gently. 11. Cover & refrigerate 2-3 hours or overnight. 12. Bring to room temperature before cutting into bars. |
