Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams light brown sugar
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 unit large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 125 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 150 grams rolled oats
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams milk chocolate chunks
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop until just melted. Allow it to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk together until smooth.
Step 4
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the rolled oats, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and milk chocolate chunks, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Spread the batter into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to smooth the top into an even layer.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 9
Remove the pan from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
