Peanut Butter Fingers
Ingredients:Bars:
1 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
2 cups oatmeal
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
Frosting:
1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp. vanilla
dash salt
3 Tb. water
3 cups powdered sugar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray jelly-roll pan with cooking spray.
In bowl of large electric mixer cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars until light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until incorporated, about 1 minute. Add dry ingredients and mix on low just until all ingredients are incorporated, 1 – 2 minutes.
Bake for 12 – 14 minutes, until very light golden brown (it will still look doughy, but you don’t want to overcook or they will be dry). Cool completely.In medium bowl, melt butter and chocolate chips in microwave on high for 1 minute, stirring every 20 seconds. Stir until completely melted.
Add remaining frosting ingredients, adjusting water and powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached. Spread evenly over bars and cut into squares to serve.
