Very tasty but almost impossible to remove from the pan. My sister and I broke them into chunks and dipped them in chocolate to make them tastier and prettier!

Chewy throughout with a thin "syrup glaze" on the bottom. It is sticky and chewy like a soft toffee should be. Finely chopped walnuts add that extra flavor to the dessert. [My review is on the Highland Toffee recipe made with salted butter (or original I Can't Believe It's Not Butter) and without the 1/2 tsp salt. The butter, as opposed to the oil, gives the dessert an authentic toffee flavor.]

These were yummy. I made them with butter, and then to combat the stickiness, I flipped them over (the bottoms were the sticky part) and put the chocolate on that way :) Refridgerate it and then spray your knife with a cooking spray and it'll cut up easily. Also, I cooked 2 batches, 1 with salt (and salted butter) and 1 without the salt (still using salted butter) and the one without the salt was much better. So I'd omit that from the recipe as well :)

I LOVE toffee. I have made at least 5 different toffee recipes. This was not among my favorites. I love oatmeal too, so I thought this recipe had potential. Sadly, to me it just came out too chewy and did not have the toffee flavor I sought.

It took me a while to warm up to this recipe. I had no idea if it was done when I took it out of the oven and after it had come to room temperature, it was still falling apart and messy. However, I put it in the fridge until the chocolate set really well then pulled the entire bar out (I tin-foiled the pan and buttered the tin-foil) and cut it while it was still solid. After a night at room temp. these bars are wonderfully chewy and absolutely beautiful! Next time I need a sweet for a party, this will be the recipe I use.

Four stars for the original, FIVE for this recipe with the following modifications: - butter instead of oil (yum, why wouldn't you?) - four minutes extra in the oven - milk chocolate melted on top - half an hour in the freezer before cutting

Yummy! Like other reviewers i sprinkled the chocolate chips on for the last few minutes of baking. I think I needed to bake mine longer, necause the middle ones were pretty chewy and coming apart, but the oustide ones stayed together well. I lined the pan with greased foil and had no trouble getting them out.

Yum! I like using oats in cookies and squares, and these were great! I omitted the nuts (didn't have any), but otherwise pretty much followed the recipe. I have made two batches, and both turned out well. I used foil to line the pan (makes for easy removal of squares), but remember to grease/spray the foil! Otherwise, as in my second batch, the squares will REALLY stick to the foil. Also, I didn't bother melting the chocolate chips separately: I sprinkled them on the top of the squares when there was two or three minutes left in the baking time and then smoothed the chocolate evenly with a knife. Stick them in the fridge awhile, cut, eat! Delicious! Thanks, Josh!

I loved this, my husband wasn't wild about how sticky it was. I used block chocolate and left off the nuts. I'll make it again and have it all for me!

The squares were sticky and hard to get out of the pan and the chocolate topping didn't stick very well to the oatmeal bottom. That said, it was pretty tasty.

Yummy!! and so easy. I have a similar recipe that uses graham crackers as the base, these were chewy and delicious. Competition for the other recipe for sure..can't stop eating them, so make a lot..Thanks for the recipe
