O'Henry Bars
SO, if you're feeling generous to share, which may not be your first reaction, your friends/family/kids/coworkers/neighbors will rave about this little snack. (did I cover everyone?)
You'll just have to trust me: they're good.
What You'll Need:
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 c corn syrup
2/3 c butter (softened)
2/3 c brown sugar
4 c quick oats
Topping:
1 c chocolate chips
2/3 c peanut butter
What to Do:
1. Blend first five ingredients until crumbly. Press into 9x13 greased pan.
2. Bake @350 for 15 minutes. Cool slightly.
3. In a double boiler, melt chocolate chips and peanut butter together until smooth. Spread on oat mixture while still hot.
Because I have eager people waiting to eat this, I put it in the freezer for 15 minutes to cool, then move it to the refrigerator for another 15.

Must make....only chance for survival.
Quite possibly the world's perfect food. It has everything.
I made this last night, and the only thing that didn't go well was that I didn't make it early enough for it to set up well before I had to cut it. I was on a time schedule because I was taking dinner to someone, so the bars I took them were a little...um...soft. Oh well, everything else about it was great! And here at home, I put the remaining bars in the frig until we had finished supper; and they turned out excellently. :)
