Fudge Filled Squares

For those of you that were at the Relief Society dinner on Thursday, here is the recipe for the dessert that I had brought! They are pretty darn good and one of our families favorite desserts!

Fudge Filled Squares:

Chocolate Filling:

1 (12 oz.) pkg of semi sweet chocolate chips

1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

2 Tbs. margarine

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla

Melt together chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, margarine, and salt in a saucepan over low heat until smooth. Stir in vanilla. Set aside.

Cookie base and topping:

2 cubes/sticks margarine

1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar

1 egg

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups flour

1 tsp. soda

1 tsp. salt

2 1/2 cups oatmeal (quick oats or old fashioned work)

Beat together margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Blend in egg and vanilla. Add flour, soda, and salt. Mix well. Stir in oatmeal. Press half of the mixture onto the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan. Spread chocolate filling evenly over the base. Sprinkle the reserved cookie base evenly over the chocolate layer. Press down slightly. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 mins or until golden brown (depending on how your oven cooks) Cool before cutting.
