How to Make Strawberry N Oat Bars
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened margarine and sugar until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the rolled oats and chopped nuts.
- Set aside 1/2 cup of the crumble mixture.
- Press the remaining crumble mixture into the bottom of a greased 13x9 inch baking pan.
- Spread the strawberry preserves evenly over the oat crumble layer.
- Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture over the preserves.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan.
- While the bars are cooling, melt the chocolate chips and 4 teaspoons of margarine in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled bars.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the chocolate to set.
- Cut into bars and serve.
