OATMEAL FUDGE BARS



Oatmeal Fudge Bars image

Crispy top, with an ooey, gooey, chocolaty fudge center. I hope that this turns out as well for you as it does for me! I place a large piece of aluminum foil or a cookie sheet under my 9x13-inch pan, as it can sometimes get a little bit of overflow. Worth the little bit of mess!

OATMEAL FUDGE BARS

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 45m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter
2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats (or old-fashioned)
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional, I don't use them)

Steps:

  • Grease a 9x13 baking pan; set aside.
  • In a large bowl cream butter and sugar; add eggs and vanilla.
  • In a small bowl, sift flour, baking soda, and salt; add to creamed mixture. Mix in oats.
  • In a heavy saucepan, mix sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and butter; heat just until melted. Stir in vanilla and nuts if using.
  • Spread 2/3 of the oatmeal dough (will be stiff) into prepared baking pan. Spread with chocolate mixture. Drop remaining 1/3 of dough on top by spoonfuls.
  • Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes. Allow to cool completely (if you cut them while they are still warm at all they will be gooey and fall apart), then cut into bars.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats for a chewier texture.
  • If you don't have old-fashioned oats, you can use quick oats, but reduce the cooking time by 1 minute.
  • Be sure to measure your oats correctly. Too much oats will make the fudge squares dry and crumbly.
  • Don't overcook the oatmeal. It should be cooked until it is tender but still has a little bit of a bite to it.
  • Let the fudge squares cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
  • For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • Add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips to the fudge squares for a variation.
  • Store the fudge squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal fudge squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are chewy, fudgy, and packed with flavor. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these squares that will be sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give oatmeal fudge squares a try. You won't be disappointed!
