How to Make Chocolate Oatmeal Almost Candy Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, chocolate chips, peanut butter, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, eggs, salt, and baking soda.
  3. Stir until well combined. If using nuts, stir them in now.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This will help them set up.
  7. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
