Make these irresistible Oh Henry bars with a chewy oat base and peanut butter-chocolate topping for a deliciously nostalgic treat.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 stick butter, melted (go ahead and brown the butter if you feel like it)
  • 1/2 cup honey or corn syrup (see recipe note)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups rolled or quick oats (do not use instant)
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (do not use natural peanut butter)
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts, optional
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper and grease the sides with cooking spray.
  • Prepare the oaty base by combining brown sugar, melted butter, honey or corn syrup, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Stir until smooth with a sturdy wooden spoon. Mix in the oats until well coated. Transfer the mixture to a pan and press into an even layer using slightly dampened hands. Bake for 15 minutes until fragrant and no noticeable color change occurs. Avoid overbaking. Let it cool before using.
  • Create the topping by melting chocolate chips and peanut butter in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water. Stir until smooth. Pour over the baked oat base, spread evenly, and sprinkle with chopped peanuts if desired. Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for about 1 hour until set.
  • Slice the bars: Slide a knife around the edges of the pan to release the bars. Transfer the base to a cutting board using the parchment paper. Pull back the parchment paper, then use a sharp knife to cut the bars into 40 pieces. Store the bars in an airtight container with layers separated by waxed paper. Enjoy these Oh Henry bars for up to 1 week in the refrigerator, or 3 days at room temperature. For longer storage, freeze for up to 2 months.
