OATMEAL BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9 by 13 inch baking pan. Sift the dry ingredients together and set aside. In an electric mixer cream the butter, molasses and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and add the reserved dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Fold in oats, raisins, nuts and chips. Spread dough in an even layer on prepared pan and bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool on a rack for 10 minutes then carefully cut in to bars approximately 3 inches square. Remove bars from pan and allow to cool completely.

OATMEAL HERSHEY BAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven at 325
• combine the first 7 ingredients in order written
• Spread mixture in a 8 inch ungreased square pan evenly
• Bake for 20 minutes-30 minutes or until done
• take out and lay the 3 regular hershey bars and let melt. Spread evenly on cookie mixture
• Sprinkle chopped walnuts on top
• Let cool and cut into bars. I like to cut them into bite size pieces.

HERSHEY'S BAR TOFFEE SQUARES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Beat butter, sugar, egg yolk and vanilla until creamy.
• Add flour and salt; mix well.
• Pat dough into a 10x13" rectangle on greased cookie sheet.
• Bake for about 20 minutes- until dough is set and lightly browned.
• Remove from oven and immediately top with the Hershey bar squares.
• When squares have softened (and it doesn't take long!) spread evenly and top with the finely chopped walnuts.
• Cut into bars while warm, as these are difficult to cut when cooled.

OATMEAL CHOCOLATE BAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Have ready, ungreased, two 9x9" square baking pans or one 15x10" jelly-roll pan.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large glass or plastic mixing bowl, soften the butter (a few seconds in the microwave); it should be very soft but not completely melted. Using a heavy spoon, beat in both sugars, then beat in the eggs until smooth. Beat in the vanilla, baking soda and salt. Mix in the flour just until combined, then stir in the oatmeal and chocolate chunks.
• Spoon the cookie dough into ungreased baking pans. Using the back of the spoon, lightly spread the dough, leaving it a little higher at the sides and corners than in the middle. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 17-20 minutes, until set in the middle and brown around the edges. Because of the brown sugar, this cookie gets much darker than "golden brown" when it is done.
• Cool in the pan. Cut into bars to serve. Take some to work or school to give away, because the large amount of oatmeal makes them dry out in a few days if you have leftovers.
