Peanut Butter Bars



This quick treat can be whipped up in under 30 minutes. Thanks Danielle for the recipe!

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 cube butter (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy or creamy)
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup flour
1 cup oats
1/2 cup more creamy PB
1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350. Cream sugars, egg and butter. Mix in peanut butter and vanilla. Stir in flour, salt and baking soda till mixed in. Stir in oats. Press into cookie sheet, bake for 10 minutes. Melt chocolate chips on low setting in microwave, 30 seconds at a time, stirring often. (Chocolate is temperamental, so heat slow and low.) When bars come out of oven, let cool for a few minutes, then spread 1/2 cup creamy PB all over, it will melt. Then on top spread the melted chocolate. So easy, quick and very yummy! I made this on a whim last night at 10:45, Klane and I were craving it and it didn’t disappoint!
