This recipe is just too quick, easy, and wonderful not to share. I don't remember the official name for these, but because they have my favorite things in them (oats, peanut butter, chocolate, and brown sugar), I decided to name them My Favorite Things Bars.
My Favorite Things Bars
Crust
1 cup butter, melted
1 cup brown sugar
4 cups instant oatmeal
Combine crust ingredients and pat onto greased cookie sheet. It will appear it isn't moist enough, but it is fine :)
Use a large cookie sheet as the crust will spread some when baking, so do not put too close to the edges of the cookie sheet. I patted mine thin the first time around - next time I would probably leave the crust a little bit thicker.

Bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes.
While the crust is baking melt:
1-1/2 cups of chocolate chips
3/4 cup peanut butter
in a medium saucepan over low heat.
When crust is done spread chocolate/peanut butter mixture on top.
Sprinkle toffee chips on top (no specific amount).
Cut into pieces and enjoy!
I got this recipe from our daughter-in-law Melissa, who got it from her grandmother, Jackie Andersen.
Thanks to both for sharing it!
Happy Favorite Things and Happy Friday!
