Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup melted butter (1stick)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup flour
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I use Ghiradelli)
3/4 cup rolled oats (uncooked oatmeal)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees with the rack in the middle position.
Melt the butter in a large microwave safe bowl.
Add the brown and white sugars and let cool a bit.
Add egg, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla.
Add flour and mix. Then add the chocolate chips and oats and mix everything up. The dough will be quite stiff.
With a spatula spread dough evenly into a greased 8x8 baking pan.
Bake at 350 for 25- 30 minutes.
Cut into bars when cool.
