Heidi’s Peanut Butter Bars

Cream together:
1 c. brown sugar
1 c. white sugar
1 c. butter, softened (2 cubes)

Add:
2 eggs
1 c. peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix and add to the rest:
2 c. flour
2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt

Last, add & mix all up:
2 c. oats

Press mixture in cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes (until golden brown). Let cool. Spread peanut butter (warmed in microwave) on it. Cool again and spread chocolate frosting on top.

Frosting:
¼ c. cocoa
2-3 c. powdered sugar
¼ c. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
¼ c. evaporated or whole milk (evap. makes it more smooth)

Tip: cut bars while still warm—much easier than afterward.
