These are so chewy and yummy. I think the fact that they don't have flour in them helps them to not dry out so fast like regular bars do. I made these for a church youth camp and they were a hit so I wanted to share them on here. They come from Together as Family. Link is HERE.
And the best part about these other than they are absolutely delicious is the recipe makes a cookie sheet full so you get lots! It's a beautiful thing :)
Ingredients
1/2 cup salted butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
3 large eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups quick oats
3 cups old-fashioned oats (large flake)
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup mini M&Ms (the rest can go on top)
1 cup mini chocolate chips (or the whole bag will do)
Instructions
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment paper or spray well with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, or stand mixer with paddle attachment, combine butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and peanut butter. Mix until fluffy and pale in colour. About 1-2 mins.
3 Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix together
4. Add the oats and baking soda. Mix until combined.
5. Add in the M&Ms and chocolate chips reserving some from the bag for the top if you want. Stir together until combined.
6. Dump dough onto the cookie sheet and spread out. Sprinkle reserved M&Ms and choc chips on top. Press down slightly into dough.
7. Bake for 17-20 mins. The edges will be lightly browned and the middle will still look pale and underdone, but it will finish baking as it cools. Let cool for at least an hour so the bars can firm up and come together. You don't want to over bake these!
