No Bake Peanut Butter Bars

Jerry loves peanut butter. His favorite candy is a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. When he’s desperate he will take a scoop of peanut butter and then sprinkle it with chocolate chips. 

I’m always looking for ways to combine chocolate and peanut butter and these oat bars are one of them. They require very few ingredients and are no bake! Bonus! 

Jerry’s No Bake PB Bars

1 cup butter
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 cups oats
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup peanut butter

Butter a 9×9 square pan
In a large saucepan, melt butter, brown sugar and vanilla. Once combined, add in oats. Stir to coat the oats until all ingredients are well mixed. 

Spread half the oat mixture into the pan. Press down. 

Combine peanut butter and chocolate chips. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring well until melted and smooth. Pour over oats. 

Crumble the remaining oats over the top. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Cut into bars and enjoy!
