Chocolate Revel Bars

1C, plus 2 Tbsp butter
2C brown sugar
2 eggs
4 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 C all-purpose flour
1 C whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
dash of salt, twice
3 C Quick-oats oatmeal
12 oz. (semi-sweet or dark chocolate) chocolate chips
15 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk
1 C chopped walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Bottom/crust:
Cream 1 C butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in eggs and 2 tsp vanilla.

In a separate bowl, stir together flours, baking soda, and a dash of salt. Stir in oatmeal.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to creamed mixture.

Now spread 3/4 of this mixture into a greased jelly roll pan (15 1/2"x10 1/2"x1"). Set aside.

Chocolate filling:
Place chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, 2 Tbsp butter, dash of salt, nuts, and 2 tsp vanilla ina microwave-safe bowl and gently melt together 30 seconds at a time. Mix well. Pour the chocolate filling over the bottom, spreading almost to the edges.

Use remaining oatmeal crust mixture to "dot" over the top.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Cool and cut into bars.
