I made these for our housewarming party and they were delicious! A little rich though.
1 cup butter, softened
1-1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2-1/2 cups creamed peanut butter, Divided
1 egg
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-1/2 cups quick cooking oats
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 cup peanut butter, egg and vanilla. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Spread in greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake at 350 for 13 to 17 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly for about 12 minutes, spread on remaining peanut butter. Cool completely.
While the other part is cooling, make the Chocolate Frosting:
6 Tablespoons butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 to 8 tablespoons milk
Mix all that stuff, and add whatever milk you desire to achieve spreading consistency. Spread over peanut butter. Cut into bars.
Sounds delicious! I will have to try these. I love peanut butter bars!
