- Butter the hot baking pan; set aside.
- In the frying pan, combine corn syrup or honey and sugar; bring to a rolling boil over medium high heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter, orange extract, and orange peel. At once, pour over the oatmeal mixture and mix well.
- Quickly spread in buttered pan and press into an even layer. Then cover and chill until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight.
- DIPPING FOR CHOCOLATE COATING
