Kit Kat Oat Bars

Hello to all my Thrifty friends! It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co. & I’m back today to share with you a quick little treat that is requested often in our house. Kit Kat Oat Bars have become the single thing that my hubs requests more than anything else. I usually give in because his all time favorite treat is oatmeal cookies. However, I rarely have time to make them for him. I feel bad – he loves them so much. But with the demands of all other things happening, it just doesn’t happen as often as he would like. So when I created these & he loved them- I knew I had a keeper recipe. It gives him the buttery oats he’s craving & I only have to spend a few minutes in the kitchen to create it. WIN-WIN for us all. So let me show you how you can make these for your family too.

Kit Kat Oat Bars are a simple, no-bake treat that you can whip up in minutes.

Buttery oats blended with the great crunch of chocolaty Kit-Kat make these a hit.

I think I will make these in a quadruple batch for our next social gathering.

This recipe is great for doubling & adapting to whatever you may need.
