Chocolate Oat Snack Cake

November 23, 2010 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy 4 Comments

I got this recipe for Chocolate Oat Snack Cake from Frugal Recipes.

Chocolate Oat Snack Cake

1-3/4 c. boiling water
1 c. quick-cooking oats
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 c. sugar
1 c. packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1-3/4 c. all purpose flour
2 T. baking cocoa
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. salt
1 (12 oz.) pkg. chocolate chips, divided

Preheat oven to 350.

In a large bowl, combine water and oats; let stand for 10 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in oat mixture. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in 1 c. chocolate chips.

Pour into a greased 13×9″ baking pan. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips.

Bake 40-45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

This made a very nice, flavorful cake. No frosting needed! We all loved it. Even my visiting nephew liked it.

Even the next day, the cake was still moist. Even though there are a lot of us, I still make a 13×9 cake last several days. Hey, they don’t need a lot of cake anyway. You can’t tell there is oatmeal in this cake. You can’t see it, or feel the texture. Next time I make this, I’m going to use less sugar and whole wheat flour for at least half the white. I like to get every bit of whole grains that I can into my kids. Even at snack time.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
