Notes

  1. Allow the mixture to cool completely before adding the chocolate chips.  Otherwise, you will just end up with melted chocolate in your flapjacks.  Again, I know this from experience.  The best teacher! 
  2. When pressing them into the pan, make sure you do a real good job.  Firmly press the mixture in or it will crumble when cooked. 
  3. Also, don't over bake them.  They are not too forgiving if left in the oven too long.  You will end up with something that you could break apart like a cracker.  So, keep an eye on them. They will be quite soft when you remove them from the oven.  They will set as they cool.
  4. You need to let them cool completely. If you try to cut them out when they are warm, they will fall apart.
