Quick Chocolate Oatmeal Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 inch square baking pan.
• To prepare Filling: In a heavy pot, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and chocolate chips. Add the evaporated milk and 1/4 cup of the white sugar. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in nuts and cool.
• To prepare cookie base: Cream 1 1/2 cups of the butter and the brown sugar together. Add the vanilla and the egg, and beat until light and fluffy.
• Add the flour, baking soda, and 1 3/4 cups of the oats and blend well.
• Press 2/3 of this mixture into the bottom of the greased pan. Spread the cooled filling on top of the cookie crust.
• Mix the remaining 1/4 cup of oats with the remainder of the cookie base, and crumble over the filling. Bake for 25-30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat milk and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over medium heat until begining to simmer.
• Reduce heat and add oats, cocoa and sugar.
• Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally until thickened.
• If you want your oatmeal thick or watery, this is where you determine the consistency- don't stop until it's pretty much at the consistency you would like.
• Cover and let sit for about 5 minutes (this cooks the oatmeal more thoroughly).
• Remove cover, stir and serve.
• Garnish with chocolate chips, nuts, and/or fruit if desired.

Steps:

• Combine milk, cocoa powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and brown sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Stir oats into boiling milk and cook over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes.
