I loved this new bar and it made a larger recipe - like the Monster Bars - for when you are feeding a larger crowd. I especially loved the peanuts on top! Scarf away!

2 cups uncooked quick cooking oats
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup butter,melted
1 large egg

These bars look delicious! I hear the same complaints from my husband. He's always asking for just some plain chocolate chip cookies and I'm always trying new things. You're right, though, I never hear complaints when I hit on a new household favorite. :)
I'm so making these! I can justify that they are kind of good for you too, what with the oatmeal and protein packed peanuts...RIGHT??? :)
Lots of yummy love,
