Easy, portable, not-to-sweet peanut butter bar
Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg (room temp)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup roasted peanuts (halved)
  • ¾ cup chocolate chunks (I used dark)
  • ½ cup 10x sugar
  • 1½ T creamy peanut butter
  • 2 T milk (or until desired glaze consistency)
Instructions
  1. Cream first ingredients (through vanilla).
  2. While you let the mixer do its work, get a 9x13 pan, line with foil, spray with cooking spray, and set oven to 350.
  3. Combine dry ingredients and mix with sugar mixture.
  4. Fold in chips and nuts.
  5. Press into pan and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  6. When done, let cool in pan for 5-10 minutes.
  7. Take the bars out (made easier with the help of the foil) and put on cooling rack.
  8. Mix glaze and drizzle over the bars.
  9. Let cool completely then cut into squares.
