Unintentionally, I seem to have started 2012 in a very similar way to 2011. Last year, there was that amazing Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cake. And now, this year begins with this fantastically easy, very tasty quick bread that also features chocolate chips and oats.

I have a bit of an addiction to baking bars. To me, they're the best of all baking worlds. Seriously, I could dedicate this entire blog to bar recipes. If I were to do that, I might start to bore some of you, so I soldier on with a little more variety. Today, though, we have bars!

These bars are a nice deviation from the norm. I'm pretty much a fool for the crust and crumb of these bars. Butter, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans.... Yes, please! There's just something so warm and comforting about that combination. It's hard to resist.

I found this recipe while flipping through Nick Malgieri's Perfect Cakes. He prefaces it by saying that he makes this cake about half a dozen times every summer. Knowing how much I have liked his recipes in the past, I did not hesitate to turn on the oven and get to baking.
