Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt to the bowl and mix until well combined.
  4. Press half of the oat mixture into the greased baking pan, forming an even crust.
  5. In a small saucepan, combine the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  6. Remove the chocolate mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. Pour the chocolate ganache over the oat crust in the baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  8. Crumble the remaining oat mixture over the top of the chocolate layer, creating a crumbly topping.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.
