Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Blondies
These bars are chewy and loaded with oatmeal and chocolate chunks, and can become quite addicting. I think these bars will make the perfect dessert to take to your upcoming summer barbecues, as they are quick and stress-free to make, cut easily and clean, and stack and transport well.
Makes 24
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/3 cups oatmeal
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips/chunks (semi-sweet, dark, milk)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 13 inch baking dish and line the bottom with parchment paper. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars. Add the vanilla extract and the eggs, one at a time. Add the flour, salt and baking powder and gently stir everything together. Add the oats and chocolate chunks. Use a spatula to evenly spread the dough into the baking dish. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until light brown on the edges. Let cool completely. Cut into squares. These bars will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
