Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Bars with Cinnamon (Print-Friendly Version)

These pan cookies combine three cups of oats with milk chocolate chips and a creamed-butter dough. Press the thick mixture evenly into a nine-by-thirteen-inch pan. Let it cool before slicing so the oat-rich center has time to hold together.
