I like to stash these satisfying squares in the freezer, writes Candace Jenks. When I need a quick breakfast or anytime snack, I simply microwave the not-too-sweet bars until they're thawed, says the Minot, North Dakota cook. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1 cup quick-cooking oats |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup toasted wheat germ |
4 eggs |
2 cups chopped pecans |
1 cup flaked coconut |
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar. Combine oats, flours and wheat germ; gradually add to creamed mixture. Press into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. In a small bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Stir in pecans, coconut and chocolate chips. Spread evenly over crust.
2. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: about 2 dozen.
