Microwave Oatmeal Bars
Delicious bars without having to turn on your oven. Perfect for summer time! This recipe is from the Taste of Home "Ultimate 5 Ingredient Recipes" book.
2 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup corn syrup (can substitute 1/4 cup white sugar plus 1 tablespoon of water)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
In a bowl, combine oats and brown sugar. Stir in butter and corn syrup. Press into a greased 9-inch square microwave-safe dish. Microwave on "high" or "full power" for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the chocolate chips. Microwave at 30% power for 4 more minutes or until the chips are glossy; spread chocolate evenly over the top. Refrigerate 15-20 minutes before cutting.
These were a definite hit at our house--they taste a bit like "Scotcheroos" or "Special K Bars", but without the peanut butter. Five ingredients, no oven--what's not to like?

Love the recipes, but missing the pictures. How about some beauty shots of the food with your local consumers?
