This is a great recipe..One of the family favorites, so described because it is located in our family cookbook, is called Chocolate Revel bars. I love these bars. I don’t think I can tell you how often we made these when I was growing up. We love everything about these revel bars (how sinfully rich they are and how quickly they disappear, being two reasons) and we know you’ll love them too!
They are delectable!
Homemade Chocolate Revel Brownie Bars
Yields 2-3 dozen
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups steel-rolled, old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, divided
1/2 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 350º F and line a 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly spray with non-stick spray.
Combine flour, oats, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
In a large bowl or mixer, cream together 6 tablespoons butter and sugar and lightened in color and fluffy.
Beat in egg and vanilla extract, then slowly beat in dry ingredients.
Set up a double boiler (or at 30-second intervals in the microwave), and melt condensed milk, chocolate chips and remaining butter over a simmering pot of water. Stir until completely melted and smooth.
Spread 2/3 of cookie dough mixture and pack it into baking dish.
Top with melted chocolate and gently tap the dish against a hard surface so that it spreads out and evenly coats the dough.
Spoon remaining cookie mixture over the top of chocolate, place in oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until top is golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool completely before cutting into 1×2-inch squares.
