A family favorite, homemade Oh Henry bars are based on a candy bar made by Nestlé. You'll love the sweet chewy oat base, topped with rich peanutty fudge.
¾cuppeanut butter, almond butter, or sunflower seed butter
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350ºF. If desired, for easier cutting, line pan with parchment paper and spray lightly with nonstick spray, leaving wings on each side to lift out the bars.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together oats, brown sugar, white sugar, and melted butter. Press firmly into a 9x13 inch pan and bake for 12 minutes or until bubbly. Do not over bake. Let cool 15 minutes.
In a medium mixing bowl, heat chocolate and peanut butter (or sunflower butter) over a double boiler or in 30 second intervals at 50% power in the microwave, stirring each time.
Spread chocolate mixture over oats and cool completely in refrigerator before cutting. Store bars in the refrigerator.
Notes
Use sunflower seed butter (I like unsweetened Sunbutter) to make this peanut free.
Quick oats may be substituted for the old fashioned rolled oats. Do not use steel cut oats or instant oatmeal.
Use semi sweet, dark, or milk chocolate chips. Or for a different flavor, use butterscotch chips.
If you like, sprinkle chopped peanuts or colored sprinkles over the chocolate layer before it hardens.
