- Preheat the oven to gas mark 4/350oF/180oC and line an 8x8 baking tin with parchment paper.
- To a small bowl, add the butter and golden syrup, then place in the microwave and melt at 30 second increments until the butter has fully melted. Once the butter has melted, mix in the vanilla extract and set aside.
- To a larger bowl, add the sugar, oats and salt then mix them together. Now pour the butter mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and combine. Mix well ensuring all the oats are fully coated with the butter. Add in the chocolate chips and combine well.
