Ingredients

• Frosting:
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1 cup butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 2-1/2 cup peanut butter, divided
• 2 cups oatmeal
• 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1-2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3 tablespoons cocoa
• 2-3 cups powdered sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, cream the sugar, brown sugar, and butter together. Add the vanilla, eggs and 1 cup peanut butter and stir to combine.

Add the remaining ingredients and mix together.

Spread dough on a greased jelly roll an 18x13x1. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown.

While hot spread the other 1-1/2 cups peanut butter on top-it helps to drop spoonsful said all over the top of the bars, then spread after the peanut butter has started to melt.

Let cool until the peanut butter has become solid again. While cooling, mix together frosting ingredients with a hand mixer and then spread on top of bars.
