Yummy! These were so simple to make (my 3-year-old did most of the work) and I love that they didn’t heat up my kitchen. Best of all, they taste awesomely delicious! I doubled the amount of chocolate because I’m a chocolate fiend, but I didn’t change anything else. Thanks for the fun new twist on no bake cookies.

These were a big hit! I didn’t find them too crumbly at all, but I did make sure to boil the butter/sugar mixture into a thin syrup before adding the oats.

I can’t wait to make these! We love no bakes around here but it’s always fun to try a different spin on them! And I think these will hold up better in our hunting packs. Thanks!

These are awesome to eat. They are a little crumbly, but I don’t care. They are too great to care. My husband has requested them three weeks in a row, and both our offices have raved about them. It’s also nice that it’s a quick dessert to whip up when its hot outside.

Oh, these were good. So very, very good. I made them on Friday and the entire pan was gone by Sunday night. Hubby and I did share 4 squares with others but the rest were stuffed into our mouths….and I do mean stuffed! I didn’t care about the chocolate on my fingers because I was enjoying the taste so much. Quick, easy and delicious. They will be made often! Thank you.

These TASTE great – but they are tricky to eat. The oat part is so crumbly and then you end up with chocolate all over your fingers – fine when home alone, but not really a candidate to take to a dinner party.

Karly, you need an award for these or something! They are sooo wonderful! My hubby says they’re better the second day and I have to agree. Can’t believe I have any LEFT for a second day but I agree… they are less crumbly today than day 1. Next time I might double the chocolate amount though. (my thighs will just love me for that one) I agree with Julie up there though, next time I will cook the sugar some more and MAYBE a spoon full of karo syrup just to help with the crumbly factor but in all…these are FABULOUS with a capital F! Yummy!

These tasted great! I used 60% bittersweet chocolate chips and smooth peanut butter. I also found the oat layers to be rather crumbly. Next time I make them, I’m considering allowing the sugar to melt into the butter more, then adding the oats instead of pouring all the ingredients into the melted butter at the same time.

I made these for my husband to take to his coworkers, and they were very well received! My favorite part was NOT having to turn on my oven and NOT heating up my whole apartment. This is the perfect cookie-like treat during the summer heat. I did not have the crumbling problem like the above reviews, but maybe that’s because I ate them right out of the fridge. Also, I used creamy natural peanut butter (it’s what I usually have on hand), and they turned out just fine.
