No Bake Choco Oats bars

These No-bake Oats bars are so easy to prepare .Once all the ingredients are ready it takes less than 10 minutes to finish and put it in the fridge for setting.The recipe uses Peanut butter and next time I would like to try it with Nutella.

No bake choco oats bars

Ingredients:

Oats(Quick cooking)
1 ¼ cup
Sugar(see notes below)
¾ cup
Cocoa powder
2 tblsp
Butter
2 tblsp
Peanut butter(I used creamy one)
4 tblsp( ¼ cup)
Milk
¼ cup
Vanilla essence
½ tsp

Method:
Butter ,sugar and cocoa mixture

Adding oats to the butter mixture

No bake choco oats bars
  • Grease a baking dish/tray with butter.
  • Take a Saucepan and melt the butter.Add the Sugar,Cocoa powder and Milk.
  • Keep it in medium flame and stir till the Sugar is dissolved completely .Let it boil well for 2-3 mins till bubbles start coming up(Refer picture above). Now switch off the flame.
  • Add the vanilla essence and Peanut butter and mix well. Add the Oats and mix till everything is combined well.
  • Spread this mixture evenly on the greased dish. Level the top using a flat object greased with butter or with your hands.Cover and refrigerate for 30 mins - 1 hour till its well set.
  • Cut into squares and store in an air-tight container.
Note:
  • I have tried once without Peanut butter and it came out well too.Add extra 1 tblsp butter if you don't add peanut butter.
  • You can decrease the sugar to 1/2 cup if you find it too sweet but don't try to reduce more.The minimum quantity needed for this measure is 1/2 cup.
