Peanut Butter Fingers

This is a recipe that I made around Christmas time. I can't make this for awhile because I will eat the whole pan because they are so good and get fat!

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F

1 cube butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3/4 c peanut butter
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 c flour
1 1/8 c white sugar
2 eggs
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 1/4 c rolled oats
1 tsp vanilla

Directions: Mix butter, sugars, eggs, peanut butter, soda, salt and vanilla well. Add flour and oats. Mix well. Spread into a buttered cookie sheet (about 1/8th inch thick.)
Bake at 325 degrees F for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.

When slightly cooled, spread top with 1 cup whipped peanut butter (I put the peanut butter in a bowl and got my mixer and beat it for a few minutes until it is smooth.) Cool completely or freeze. Then top with chocolate frosting. You can make your own frosting or use store bought. I tried to put the frosting on without freezing the peanut butter and although it is possible, it is very messy and difficult. Cut into bars and ENJOY!
