Ingredients

Instructions 

  • First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 9 inch by 9 inch pan with parchment paper.
  • In a stand mixer, beat butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until combined and no clumps of butter remain.
  • Then, add in egg and vanilla. Beat until combined.
  • Next, add in all remaining ingredients except chocolate chips. Stir to combine. Dough will be thick.
  • Fold in dark chocolate chips.
  • Spread dough into lined pan.
  • Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until bars look just barely set in the middle.
  • Finally, remove from oven. Allow the bars to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. They are gooey!

Notes

  • Make sure to beat butter and sugars until completely combined.  There should be no clumps of butter.
  • Both gluten free 1 to 1 flour and all purpose flour can be used.
  • I highly recommend old fashioned rolled oats over quick oats.  Rolled oats provide a much better soft and chewy texture.
  • Any type of chocolate chips may be used.
  • Bake only until the middle looks just barely set.  These are meant to be gooey.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • They are delicious frozen!  Freeze for up to 2 months.
