Even though I have a lovely ocean breeze and ceiling fans for added circulation, sometimes my kitchen can get a tad too steamy. So finding ways to eliminate the oven, but yet produce something with a "baked" composition is always a welcome alternative. Such is the case with Martha Stewarts's "No-Bake Chocolate and Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars". This recipe incorporates two of my to "die for" ingredients, chocolate and peanut butter and marries them nicely with a rich, chocolately oatmeal crust. Assembling this delicious show stopper is very easy, and gives you plenty of time for other tasks while the layers are setting up. On the toppings, I increased the amount of semi-sweet chocolate to 12 ounces and the milk chocolate to 3 ounces. I also opted to double up on the peanut butter. After all, "it's a good thing", and you can't have too much of that! The end result............pure decadence.
