Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Squares

October 27, 2016 By: Kristie

Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Squares - A delicious and simple sweet treat!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Squares

This recipe is one of my all time favorite simple sweet treats. Although, of course, I am a fan of anything that has both chocolate and peanut butter! My weakness. I’ve had the biggest sweet tooth lately, so I whipped these up to keep myself out of the candy for the trick-or-treaters (which is currently hidden on the top shelf behind some towels because I don’t trust myself!).

When spreading the peanut butter, you want the oats to be slightly warm so the peanut butter melts. But be careful because it is easy to pull up the oats so spread lightly and slowly! I put mine in the fridge to cool because I am impatient!

To celebrate candy corn season, I decided to dress them up a little. One piece of candy corn is about as much as I need at one time!

These are so delicious and I love how the candy corn made them feel so festive! Hope you all have a Happy Halloween with plenty of sweet treats 😉
