Ingredients

Oatmeal Layer

1 ¹/₄ cups all-purpose flour

1 cup uncooked quick-cooking oats

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

¹/₂ teaspoon baking soda

¹/₄ teaspoon salt

²/₃ cup cold Land O Lakes® Butter, cut into chunks

Brownie Layer

¹/₃ cup Land O Lakes® Butter

3 (1-ounce) squares unsweetened baking chocolate, chopped

1 ¹/₄ cups granulated sugar

2 large Land O Lakes® Eggs

2 tablespoons water

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

¹/₂ teaspoon baking powder

How to make

STEP 1

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 13x9-inch baking pan; set aside.
STEP 2

Combine all oatmeal layer ingredients in bowl except butter. Cut in 2/3 cup butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 1/4 cups crumb mixture for topping. Press remaining crumbs into prepared pan. Bake 10 minutes.
STEP 3

Combine 1/3 cup butter and chocolate in bowl. Microwave, stirring twice, 30-60 seconds or until chocolate is melted. Cool slightly.
STEP 4

Combine granulated sugar, eggs, water and vanilla in bowl; beat at medium speed until well mixed. Add melted chocolate mixture; continue beating until well mixed. Add 1 cup flour and baking powder; beat at low speed until well mixed.
STEP 5

Drop chocolate mixture by tablespoonfuls over warm, partially baked crust. Carefully spread brownie layer evenly over crust; top with reserved crumb mixture.
STEP 6

Bake 15-18 minutes or until edges are set. (Do not overbake.) Cool completely; cut into bars.

Tip #1

The crust will puff up while baking and then settle when removed from oven.

Tip #2

For fresh-from-the-oven fudginess, microwave individual cooled bars 5-10 seconds. Serve immediately.
