Categories     Dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup (from 14-oz can) fat-free sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)
1 cup Gold Medal™ whole wheat flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
2 teaspoons butter or margarine, softened

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 8- or 9-inch square pan with cooking spray.
  • In 1-quart heavy saucepan, heat filling ingredients over low heat, stirring frequently, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
  • In large bowl, stir together flour, 1/2 cup oats, the baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside. In medium bowl, stir egg, brown sugar, oil and vanilla with fork until smooth; stir into flour mixture until blended. Reserve 1/2 cup dough in small bowl for topping.
  • Pat remaining dough in pan (if dough is sticky, spray fingers with cooking spray or dust with flour). Spread filling over dough. Add 2 tablespoons oats and the butter to reserved dough. Mix with pastry blender or fork until well mixed. Place small pieces of mixture evenly over filling.
  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until top is golden and firm. Cool completely, about 1 hour 30 minutes. For bars, cut into 4 rows by 4 rows.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think next time I'll use less sugar or add some salt to balance out the sweetness.

These bars were a bit dry for my taste, but they were still good. I think next time I'll add some more butter or oil to the batter.

I'm not a huge fan of oatmeal cookies, but these bars were surprisingly good! The chocolate flavor is really rich and the oats give them a nice chewy texture. I would definitely recommend these bars to anyone who loves chocolate and oats.
