I am a life long collector of recipes, from many sources, including cartons and packaging of ingredients. This DATE OATMEAL SQUARES from an old (1960's) date box is the one I think you may be looking for:

1/2 cup hot water
2 tsp vanilla, divided use
1 cup rolled oats, uncooked
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sifted flour
