No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Bars


3/4 cup butter

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 tsp. vanilla

3 cups rolled oats

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1 cup milk chocolate chips

3/4 cup chunky peanut butter


Line a 8-inch-by-8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, and set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar and vanilla extract. Heat over low-heat, until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved. Add the oats, cinnamon and kosher salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes. Pour half of the oat mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread out the mixture evenly, pressing down.  In a a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and the peanut butter. Heat on high in the microwave, in increments of 40 seconds, stirring in between each increment, until melted and fully combined. Pour all but 1/4 cup of the chocolate mixture into the pan over the pressed oats, reserving the 1/4 cup for second layer. Top with the remaining oats and drizzle with the remaining chocolate mixture. Refrigerate for 4 hours, or until set.
