Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups boiling water
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup lightly packed brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened (1 cup )
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 Tablespoon cocoa
- 2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips (divided)
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9 x 13 inch baking pan and set aside.
- Add the oatmeal to a large mixing bowl. Pour the boiling water over top. Stir in the sugars and butter. Continue to stir until butter is melted. Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- Add eggs to the oatmeal mixture and mix well.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and cocoa. Add this to the oatmeal mixture, stirring to combine. Fold in 1 cup of the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chips and nuts. Baked for 40-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Notes
- You can stir all of the nuts and chocolate into the cake - then they are fully mixed and less likely to fall off. I like saving some back for the top for presentation purposes when taking the dish somewhere.
