Peanut Butter Bars

These definitely hit the sweet spot.  I haven't found a homemade cookie recipe I like yet.  But, these curbed the craving for cookies.  I think next time I'll use crunchy peanut butter.  


Okay, I tried them with chunky peanut butter.  They were amazing.  I am changing the recipe, but I'll keep the old on in parenthesis in case you like it better. I've decided these taste quite a bit like reese's candy bars (with and added crunch).

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 cups chunky peanut butter (peanut butter)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups milk chocolate chips (semisweet chocolate chips)

Melt butter over low heat. Remove from heat and  add sugars, peanut butter and vanilla and mix well.

Press into a 9 x 13 inch pan. Melt chocolate chips and spread over the top. Cool and serve.
