It has been awhile since I shared a recipe for my gluten free cookies series, but today I have a delicious gluten free cookie bar for you.
I adapted this from a recipe that I made for years. The original recipe was not gluten free, but with some tweaking and adjusting it was not hard to make them work gluten free.
The best way to describe these are like an oatmeal cookie with a layer of fudge in the middle. So good!

Hi, the oatmeal fudge bars look delicious. Could I have the original recipe (not gluten free)? Love your site, it has become my go to place for supper recipes:)
Thanks,

I just checked my website and I guess I never shared the regular version. It is this recipe from Taste of Home with a few tweaks. I adapted the filling part some and leave out the nuts, but it is the same basic recipe. I hope you enjoy it! https://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Fudge-Nut-Oatmeal-Bars
