Ingredients

Peanut Butter Bars

¾ cup brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup creamy peanut butter
¾ cup butter room temperature
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cups flour
1 ½ cups old-fashioned oatmeal
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup peanut butter

Chocolate Frosting

½ cup butter
4 tablespoon milk
4 cups powdered sugar
4 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Peanut Butter Bars

Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 9x13 baking sheet with cooking spray.
Cream brown sugar, sugar, ¾ cup peanut butter, butter, eggs, vanilla in large bowl for 2 minutes.
Add flour, oatmeal, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined.
Press dough into prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes.
Let bars cool slightly, then spread a thin layer of peanut butter (approx 1 cup) over the cooked bars when still warm. Then spread chocolate frosting over warm bars. Enjoy!

Chocolate Frosting

Add all the ingredients, except powdered sugar to a bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until well combined. Mix in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time. If frosting is too runny, add more powdered sugar, if it's too thick, add in a bit more milk.
