  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      cups          oats -- quick or instant
   1      cup           brown sugar -- packed
     1/2  cup           melted butter
     1/2  tsp           vanilla

Mix oats  and  brown  sugar,  mix  in  butter  and vanilla.

Divide mixture evenly in 2 ungreased 8-inch square pans, spreading evenly, or
in a single pan for thicker, more chewy squares.  Bake at 375F for about 10
minutes (15 minutes if in a single pan) or until golden-brown. Squares will be
soft, but will harden when cool.

Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then mark in  squares with  a  sharp  knife.  
Loosen edges and allow to cool before removing from pans.
