Chewy-Gooey Bars

This recipe is another delicious Tasty Kitchen find. It is oh so chewy and gooey...just the way I like it! And oh the smell when the oven is first opened...simply heavenly!

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup butter
• 12 oz (about 1 1/2 cups) chocolate chips (asks for semi-sweet, but I'm a milk chocolate girl!)
• 1 (14 oz) can sweetened, condensed milk

Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, salt, baking soda, oats, and flour. Add egg and butter. Combine mixture using a pastry blender or two forks. Press about 2/3 of the mixture in a 9x13" pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the top, and then drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the top. Sprinkle with reserved crust mixture. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until crust is golden. Let cool slightly before cooling.
