225g demerara sugar
2 tbsp golden syrup
275g rolled oats
100g plain chocolate chips Pre-heat the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas 3. Lightly grease a 30 x 23cm roasting or baking tin.
Melt the margarine in a pan with the sugar and syrup. Stir in the oats. Mix well and leave to cool.
Stir in the chocolate chips. Turn into the prepared tin, press flat with a palette knife or the back of a spoon.
