Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, room temperature, plus more for greasing
• • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• • 1/2 cup plus 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• • 1 large egg
• • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• • 1 cup all-purpose flour
• • 1 teaspoon baking soda
• • 1/4 teaspoon salt
• • 1/2 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
• • 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (about 1 cup)
• • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
• • 4 tablespoons milk

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter.
2. Combine butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and 1/2 cup of the peanut butter in a mixing bowl and cream until well blended. Add the egg and vanilla. Sift the flour with the baking soda and the salt. Mix the oatmeal into the flour and stir the flour into the creamed mixture. Spread the batter in the baking pan with your hands. Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the batter and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until browned around the edges. Combine confectioners sugar, milk and 1/4 cup of peanut butter in a separate bowl. Mix well, pour over bars and let completely cool. Cut bars to serve.
