CHOCOLATE, CRANBERRY & OAT BARS



Chocolate, Cranberry & Oat Bars image

From Kraft. These turned out so moist and delicious! Used 1 1/4 cup of brown sugar and will lower it next time to 1 cup to lower a bit the calories! Also used about 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips instead of the baking squares. You've got to try this! :)
