Equipment

Ingredients

For the oatmeal dough:

  • 1 cup softened butter 2 sticks
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking soda

For the chocolate filling:

  • 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk 1 can
  • 12 oz bag semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 bag
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup walnuts optional

Instructions

  • Start by greasing a 10x15 sheet pan with softened butter and set aside. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine softened butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Crack in the eggs, add the vanilla and mix again. Add the flour, baking soda and rolled oats. Fold together until a dough forms and no visible flour is remaining.
  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips and vanilla extract. Stir continuously until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Optionally fold in chopped walnuts (or your nut of choice).
  • Press ¾ of the oatmeal cookie dough into the bottom of your greased sheet pan. Pour over the chocolate fudge mixture and spread evenly. Crumble the remaining ¼ of cookie dough sporadically overtop of the fudge layer. Bake for 25 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool completely. Slice into bars and enjoy!
