These are amazing and delicious bar cookies. I always get SO many compliments when I make these. Be careful, they go FAST, despite the fact that this recipe makes so many!
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup peanut butter (i use creamy)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
2 cups oats (old fashioned or quick cooking)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups powdered sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa
4 tablespoons soft butter
2 -3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
1. Cream butter and sugars.
2. Mix in peanut butter, eggs and vanilla.
3. In a separate bowl combine flour, oats, baking soda and salt.
4. Combine two mixtures together.
5. Press evenly into a 15x10x2 cookie sheet (jelly roll pan).
6. Bake at 350°F for 15-18 minutes (till golden brown).
7. Mix the frosting ingredients together.
8. Spread the frosting over the warm bars.
9. Occasionally the frosting will be a little hard to spread. When this happens, I add either milk, or I microwave the frosting for 10-20 seconds and it is a lot easier to work with.
