These bars blew my mind! The chocolate is fudgy, and the oatmeal cookie just puts them over the top. I can’t wait to try out a few of my favorite recipes that call for graham cracker crumbs and replace it with other cheapo cookies from the Dollar Store.

Melt 1/2 cup butter in medium saucepan over low heat or in glass bowl in microwave.

Combine butter and crumbs till all crumbs are moist and buttery. Reserve 1/4 cup for topping. Press remaining crumbs into the bottom of a greased 8 x 8 pan. I placed a square of parchment paper on the bottom of my pan. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely.

Heat chocolate and 1/2 cup butter in medium saucepan on lowest heat, stirring often until chocolate is almost melted. Remove from heat and stir until smooth.

Add egg, beat well to combine, stir in sugar, just a spoonful at a time. Once all sugar is added and you have a smooth consistency, stir in nuts. Spread evenly over crust, using the back of a spoon.

Using the parchment paper on the bottom of the pan makes it easy to remove to a cutting board and cut evenly into squares. I cut into 16 squares.

dOES THE HEAT FROM THE CHOCOLATE TAKE CARE OF THE RAW EGG?

These look and sound delicious and they are so easy to make! I’ve got to get a package of oatmeal cookies and I’ll be ready to make these! I love a vinyl tablecloth-if something is spilled, it wipes right up and it’s great for crafts.

I am curious about the raw egg? Is the heat from the chocolate enough to cook it???

The raw egg isn’t really raw as your stirring it into the hot melted chocolate creating a mousse, Without the eg I imagine the chocolate would be harder. If you try it, let me know how it turns out.
