Preheat oven to 350. Cover an 8x8-in baking pan with foil, letting 3 in hang over the sides.

In a med bowl, combine flour, brown sugar and rolled oats. Add melted butter and stir with a fork to combine. Remove 1 1/2 c of mixture and pat into bottom of prepared pan and 1/4 in up the sides. Bake for about 10 mins.

Meanwhile, mix walnuts into excess oat mixture, set aside.

Spread raspberry jam over the crust leaving a 1/2 in border around the outside. Sprinkle chocolate over the top, then add remaining crust mixture in an even layer.
