It Happens in a Blink

Chewy Oats and Chocolate Bars

Thank you to Nestle Toll House for sponsoring today’s post and inspiring me to try the new DelightFulls Filled Baking Morsels!

I like surprises. Surprises are just plain fun. These Chewy Oats and Chocolate Bars have a sweet surprise inside- a hint of cherry flavor without adding any cherries at all! I’ve been trying out a few of the varieties of the new Nestle Toll House DelightFulls this weekend, and my favorite so far are the Dark Chocolate Morsels with Cherry Flavored Filling. They make an excellent addition to baking, and my kids definitely love them. I always make snack bars for my kids, and typically I include fruit, but this time I made them with as sweet treat bars.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Cream the butter with the light brown sugar and the regular sugar. Blend in the egg and vanilla. Slowly add the remainder of the dry ingredients. Stir in the bag of Nestle Toll House DelightFulls, saving 1/4 cup aside.

Spread the mixture into the pan.

Bake for 15 minutes. Check to see if done by inserting a toothpick in the center to see if it comes out clean. Cut into bars of the desired size.
