Oatmeal Squares

A real favorite at our house.  They are similar to a recipe on p. 46 of the Western Christian High cookbook.  It is one tidbit of information that has remained in my head from my high school days (1962-66)!

Combine:

1 cup margarine (melted)
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup

Add:

6 cups oatmeal

Press into a greased and floured cookie sheet (they will come off easier).  Bake at 350ºF for 15-20 minutes.  Cool.  Spread with mixture of:

3/4 cup peanut butter
3/4 cup chocolate chips

Sprinkle with peanuts if desired.  Chill and cut into bars.  Refrigerate (if they last).
