One cup of butter 1/2 cup compressed brown sugar One teaspoon of vanilla essence Three cups instant-cooking oats 1 cup of chocolate chunks, semisweet 1/2 cup peanut butter with cream Chips of chocolate drizzled over
Prepare a greased 9-by-9-inch pan. Reserve.
To melt butter, place it in a medium saucepan. Brown sugar and vanilla are stirred in. Oats should be cooked for a few minutes on moderate heat.
Using a spatula, place half of this mixture into the greased pan.
Melt chocolate morsels and peanut butter in a separate saucepan over low heat. Once homogeneous, pour the mixture over the bottom oat layer.
With gentle pressure, crumble the remaining oat mixture over the chocolate layer. Drizzle melted chocolate chunks on top.
Refrigerate while covered for several hours. Before slicing, bring bars to room temperature.
