Cherry oat squares with chocolate drizzle

Hi! Here is the method for how to make some delicious cherry oat squares:           EASY

Makes 16.                                                                                     Ingredients:
140g butter or margarine, melted
 100g self raising flower (or 100g plain flower with 1tsp baking-powder
175g porridge oats
175g caster sugar
1 egg
100g glace cherries, halved
50g dark chocolate


1. Heat the oven to 180C, 160C fan or gas 4. Then butter and line the base (and sides if you want, but i didn't) of a 22cm square cake tin.This will make lifting it out easier.

2. Then simply mix together the flour, auger and oats in a bowl.  Then add the egg, melted butter and cherries and mix well. Next tip the thick mixture into the tin and spread evenly with a fork.

3. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. After cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then carefully lift out using the paper and two spatulars for extra help! Then draw 4 lines each way to make 16 squares. Finally melt the chocolate in the microwave for 1 minute then, using a teaspoon, drizzle over the squares. When the chocolate has set, cut the squares down the marked lines. Done!

(I used gluten free flour instead of plain flour because my mum can't eat gluten and it tastes brilliant and works fine.)
