This is a recipe that one of my best friend's mom would make and I have been making for 30 years.

I was happy with the yummy results when I adapted the recipe to a gluten free one.

Chocolate Revel Bars (Gluten Free)
Crust:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 cups GF flour mixture (use 2 tsp. xanthum gun if your mixture does not have it)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp. baking soda
3 cups GF oats
Topping:
2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
3 TBSP butter

Cream together butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla.

Blend in dry ingredients until well mixed.  Press 2/3's of the cookie dough into a lightly greased jelly roll pan.  I use my hands that I wet with cold water.

Use your favorite melting technique (microwave, stovetop) to melt together the topping ingredients.
