Ingredients for Chocolate Oat Bars:
Method of preparing the Chocolate Oat Bars:
-
Line an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with parchment paper and set it aside.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat over low heat until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved.
-
Add the oats, cinnamon, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for 4-5 minutes.
-
Pour half of this mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread out evenly, pressing down.
-
In a small microwaveable bowl. Combine the chocolate chips and the peanut butter. Heat on high in the microwave, in 40-second increments, stirring in between each increment, until melted and fully combined.
-
Pour 4/5 of the chocolate mixture into the pan over the pressed oats. Top with the remaining oats and drizzle with the remaining chocolate mixture.
-
Place in the fridge for 4 hours, or until set.
