Fun-Fetti Oatmeal Cookie Bars

 Have you ever found yourself trapped inside a man's kitchen?
Yes, trapped.
I was planning a meal for a family get-together,
visited my local grocery for the main course,
and found myself with no plans for dessert when I returned home.
You can't have a family meal without something sweet.
So I started opening cupboards, closets, and drawers 
looking for any sugary substances.
I started throwing things on the counter.
I will put something together once I empty unorganized
locations of sugary goodness.
This is what I found:
Cherry Pie Filling
Oatmeal Cookie Mix
Chocolate Chips
and a Fun-Fetti Cake Mix
Now what do I do with these ingredients?
I'll show you.....
 I lined an 8x8 pan with foil and spayed with cooking spray.
I mixed the oatmeal cookie dough according to package directions,
pressed it in the bottom of the pan and baked at 350 degrees 
for 15 minutes.
I removed the cookie crust from the oven and threw on half
of the bag of chocolate chips. 
I didn't spread them I just left them set where they fell.
 The fun-fetti cake mix:
1 cake mix
2/3 c. melted butter
2 eggs
All mixed together
I spread the cake mix on top of the cookie crust, 
and baked for 25-30 minutes.
Cool completely.
The foil lined pan makes it nice for lifting out the cookie
bars and slicing them into servings.
I topped each serving with cherry pie filling.
And that is what comes out of being trapped in a man's kitchen.
The impossible is always possible.
