Deep Dish Fudgy Oatmeal Bars
These Deep Dish Fudgy Oatmeal Bars have a fudge center, sandwiched between two oatmeal layers. They taste incredible and have an amazing texture! They're one of my top five favorite desserts I've ever had.

Ingredients
- Cookie:
- 1 cup {2 sticks} salted butter softened
- 2 cups light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 1/3 cup milk {I use 1% but any kind will work}
- 2 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- Fudge:
- 1 {14 oz.} can Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk
- 1 {12 oz.} bag milk chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup salted butter
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13 inch nonstick pan.
-
In a medium bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar and eggs and mix well. Add the vanilla and milk and incorporate well.
-
In a medium, separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. Spread 2/3 of the mixture into the pan and set aside.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine all of the ingredients for the fudge and let melt completely over medium heat. Once melted, pour over the prepared cookie mixture.
-
Drop spoonfuls of the remaining cookie dough over the top of the fudge. It won't cover it completely, but will make for a pretty top.
-
Place in oven and bake for 25 minutes. If the top is getting browned after 15 minutes, cover with foil. Let cool completely, so the insides don't run everywhere.
