One more way to use leftover peanut butter eggs.

An oh my are they good!  Today, I felt like baking.  It's one of the cold rainy days, really crazy for the end of May.  So I baked up a batch of cookie bars.
 

If your a peanut butter fan then you'll love these!

Peanut Butter Bar Recipe: 
Ingredients
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup salted butter (softened)
  • 3 eggs (whisked)
  • 2 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2  cups peanut butter chips
  • 6 peanut butter eggs chopped ( you can use peanut butter cups as well)  
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl. Add in eggs and stir until combined. Mix the baking powder and salt with 1 cup of flour. Pour into the butter mixture and stir in the rest of the flour. Fold in chocolate chips and chopped pb eggs. 
  2. Grease a 12x14 pan (13x9 will work too) and lightly dust with flour. Press dough into pan with flour on your hands. Bake for 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Test with a tooth pick. The dough should be soft in the center.
  3. I tried a 9X9 pan, but they were just to think and the topped browned before the bars were cooked all the way.  

  1. Allow bars to cool and then enjoy with a cold glass of milk!

  1. Oh, you make me laugh. In my house there is no such thing as 'left over' peanut butter eggs! These do look delish, though!
