Peanut Butter Bars

This recipe came from my good friend Marcie.  We are both military spouses and at the time loved getting together to share food with the other spouses. This was a recipe that I just had to have.

Peanut Butter Bars

3/4 C butter
3/4 C brown sugar
3/4 C white sugar
3/4 C peanut butter
2 eggs
3/4 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 C flour
1 1/2 C oats

Cream butters, sugars, and eggs. Add all other ingredients and spread in a large cookie sheet with sides. It takes a while to work it into the whole bottom of the pan but you want it even all over. Bake at 350 for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Do not overcook.

Frosting:
1/4 C butter
1 tsp. vanilla
3 C powdered sugar
1 Tbsp cocoa
2 Tbsp milk

For the frosting you can kind of make it to the taste and consistency you like. It should be on the thick side so the bars have a thin layer on top of them.
