Triple Chip Oatmeal Bars

One of the things that my husband most appreciates about me is my willingness to use butterscotch chips in baking.  I can’t say for sure that it’s what has kept us happily married for 7 years, but I’m guessing it’s a factor somewhere.  In case that’s true, I’ll continue buying those little gems AND I’ll keep baking with them.

That’s how this recipe came about – I was looking for a way to both satisfy his love of butterscotch AND my desire to bake enough cookie bars for him to take to work. I found a Monster Bar recipe, tweaked it and came up with this keeper!

And a keeper it is!  I used chocolate chips.  And peanut butter chips.  And butterscotch chips.  But you wouldn’t have to – if you only have a couple of those, that’s okay.  If you only want to use 1 of those, that’s okay too.  You just need about 4 cups of chips – whatever variety they are!

These are great as they mix up quickly.  They don’t take long to bake.  And they feed a crowd.  Love having this one in my collection!

    How long would you cook in a 9 x 13″ pan?

      Hmmm…that’s a hard one! I’d start at 15 minutes, but that’s a guess. Especially if you make the full recipe but just do a 9×13 pan. The bars would be much “deeper”, if that makes sense.
