My daughter in law gave me this recipe for No Bake Chocolate-Oat Bars and said it was my son’s new favorite dessert bar. I made it when they were down visiting and oh my gosh they are ooey gooey good! It was gone the next day! My son heats his so that the chocolate is more melted when he eats his. I must agree I prefer them melted just a few seconds myself. You have to refrigerate them to have them set up. But that extra microwave of 20 seconds puts them over the top!
No Bake Chocolate-Oat Bars
This is a one bowl recipe to mix everything in. I used Bob’s Red Mill Organic Gluten Free Oats and their Shredded Unsweetened Coconut. This recipe also uses pecans which really gives it a rich tasty crunch. If you swap out the honey and use maple syrup instead, this will be vegan!
If you are into chocolate as much as I am, here is a wonderful recipe for a Chocolate Molten Mug Cake!
