Monster Bars

These are awesome bars and they make a ton!  I am helping put together a cookbook for my sons Preschool and this is one of the recipes that will be going in the book.  I had to try it out! 

Monster Bars:
1/2 Cup Crisco
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup Sugar
3 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
2 tsp Baking Soda
1 1/2 Cups Peanut Butter
4 1/2 Cups Oatmeal (not instant)
1 Cup M&M's
1 Cup Chocolate Chips

All you do is mix them up and spread it out in a 11 X 15 pan.  I lined the bottom of the pan with parchment which made it so easy to remove from the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes.  You want them to be just a little golden brown....whatever you do don't over bake them!  They are that easy....and so good.  You could add nuts if you wanted but I like them just as they are.  Enjoy!
