From work outs to food... These peanut butter bars are so delicious. They are a perfect treat to make with children. They go great with a nice tall glass of milk. If you eat them as your breakfast, you could actually even get away with eating one.
Peanut Butter Bars
2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 teaspoon baking soda
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces (2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces (2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the butter, brown sugar and peanut butter on medium speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add in eggs and vanilla. Mix to combine. Fold in dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture. Pour into prepared 9 x 13 and place on middle rack of oven. Bake for about 35 to 40 minutes. It will be golden. As it cools it will become firm.

I'm bookmarking these; my daughter is a peanut butter hound, so these bars will go over great in our home. Thanks!

happy weekend!
Ah yes! I totally know that feeling of "boom..forty five minutes later." It feels good to distract yourself with friends when exercising. However, weekends are my "no exercise" time and so I can drool at these bars without feeling guilty :)
I'm going to add these to the list of recipes to try! If only my sons school allowed peanut butter......my life would be a lot easier:)
I'm so lucky my cousin likes to walk with me, having someone there makes it go so much faster. She even considers it her "me" time away from the kids
