For anyone who loves chocolate and peanut butter as much as I do, here’s a delicious recipe for chocolate and peanut butter bar cookies.  They are easy to make, and are a great dessert to take to a labor day picnic.

Bar Ingredients

1 c. flour

1 c. rolled oats

1/2 c. sugar

1/2 c. brown sugar

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 c. butter

1/3 c. peanut butter

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 egg

1 6 oz pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Glaze Ingredients

1/3 c. powdered sugar

2 T. peanut butter

3-5 tsp. milk (add 3 first, then add additional teaspoons until desired consistency)

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Grease 13 X 9 pan.  In large bowl, combine all bar ingredients except the chocolate chips with mixer on low speed until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Press into bottom of pan.  Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Sprinkle immediately with chocolate chips.

Let stand 5 minutes, then spread evenly.

Combine glaze ingredients and drizzle over the top.

Cool completely, then cut into bars.
