Peanut Butter Bars




Cream together:

1 Cube butter
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar

Add:
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups oats
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups flour

Mix well and spread into greased cookie sheet. Bake @ 325 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until barely browned. Cool just a few minutes and spread on a thin layer of peanut butter. Cool completely and frost with chocolate icing.

Chocolate Frosting
4-5 cups powdered sugar
2-3 heaping tablespoons of baking cocoa
1/3 cup softened butter
milk
coconut extract

Combine powdered sugar and cocoa. Add butter and milk beating well until desired consistency (fairly thick). Add coconut extract- about one capful. Mix well and spread over peanut butter bars. This is a great icing for anything you use chocolate frosting on.
+ for extra peanut butter flavor add 1/4 cup peanut butter to frosting.
