Oatmeal Bars
Everyone benefits from a back-to-school bake sale: Kids get to make yummy treats with their parents then have the fun of acting as vendor. These treats are perfect for a bake sale; they're kid-size and easy to eat anywhere. Many are also peanut-free to reduce the chance of an allergic reaction.
Chocolate-caramel-oatmeal squares leave home wrapped in waxed-paper "sleeves." Construction-paper bands stamped with the price get taped on at the sale.
