Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare an 8-inch or 9-inch square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together until fully combined. Stir in vanilla extract.
  3. Fold in rolled oats until evenly coated and heated through (about 3-4 minutes).
  4. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine peanut butter and chocolate chips; melt in short intervals until smooth.
  5. Pour half of the oat mixture into the prepared dish as the base layer. Add the melted peanut butter-chocolate mixture on top, spreading it evenly.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture over the filling, pressing down gently.
  7. Drizzle any leftover chocolate-peanut butter mix on top and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before slicing.
