I promised Courtney and Jaren a treat on Sunday night when they came over and Cort always wants a chocolate treat so I went on Pinterest and searched for “quick and easy chocolate treats” and this is one that came up.  They were quick and easy and also delicious!  They come from a blog called “Mandy’s Recipe Box”.

bars:

1 cup butter

2 cups brown sugar

2 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 1/2 cups flour

3 cups quick oats

filling:

1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

1 package milk chocolate chips (I used semisweet to get that flavor instead of the milk)

1 tablespoon butter

1/2 teaspoon salt

1  For bars:  Cream together butter, brown sugar and eggs.  Add vanilla and mix.  Add salt, baking soda and flour and mix.  Add oats and mix well.  Press 2/3 dough into greased 10 x 15″ jelly roll pan (cookie sheet with sides).

2  For filling:  Put sweetened condensed milk, chips, butter and salt in bowl and microwave for 1 minute then stir.  Keep microwaving at 30 second intervals and stirring until melted and smooth.  Pour over dough and spread out.

3  Sprinkle remaining dough over fudge layer.  Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
