PEANUT BUTTER FINGERS WITH SALTY MILK CHOCOLATE GLAZE
Nut cookies in the shape of "sticks" or "fingers" were kind of a thing back in the day. I substitute bread flour instead of all-purpose for chewiness, which is a must for a peanut butter cookie in my opinion.

Steps:
- Grease an 8-by-8-by-2-in [20-by-20-by-5-cm] pan with nonstick cooking spray or softened butter, line with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides, and grease again.
- For the cookies:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the oil and peanut butter and continue to mix until fully incorporated, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
- Decrease the mixer speed to medium-low and add the egg and yolk, one at a time, beating well and scraping the bowl after each addition with a rubber spatula. Add the vanilla and mix to combine. Add the dry ingredients all at once, mixing just to combine.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 to 36 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F [180°C].
- Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan, making it as flat and even as possible. Bake for 22 to 27 minutes, until browned and dry to the touch. Let cool.
- Freeze for about 10 minutes (this helps immeasurably with making clean cuts). Alternatively, you can tightly wrap the pan and freeze for up to a week before bringing back to room temperature and cutting and glazing.
- Lift the bar cookie from the pan using the parchment paper sling. Trim off all four edges, then slice the bar in half horizontally and vertically cut each half into 6 slices, creating 12 fingers.
- For the glaze:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Place the chocolate and salt in a small heatproof bowl. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat, until just boiling.
- Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let sit for 1 minute. Mix the chocolate and cream together until the two are combined. If the chocolate is not completely melted, place in a pan set over simmering water and melt on the stove top over low heat.
- Dip the top of each finger in the glaze, double-dipping for a thicker coat if you so desire, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle flaky sea salt over each one. Refrigerate until the chocolate sets, about an hour.
- Serve the fingers cold from the fridge or at room temperature. The cookies will keep in an airtight container on the counter or in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- 1. Cream butter, sugars and 1/2 cup peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and continue mixing until blended, scraping bowl often.
- 2. Combine flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly stir flour mixture into creamed mixture until combined. Stir in oats until well blended.

- 4. While these are baking whip the remaining 2 cups of peanut butter until fluffy. Spread whipped peanut butter over top of peanut butter fingers while still warm. Place in refrigerator until cooled and peanut butter is set.
- 5. In a saucepan over medium heat; melt butter. Add sugar, cocoa and evaporated milk. Cook 2 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and add powdered sugar, mixing until smooth. Spread over top of cooled and set peanut butter fingers. Cut into desired servings.
Tips:
- For the best results, use creamy peanut butter and fresh butter. Salted or unsalted butter can be used, depending on your preference.
- If you don't have any chocolate chips, you can use chopped peanuts or chopped pretzels instead.
- If you want a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Be careful not to overcook the peanut butter mixture. It should be thick and bubbly, but not too dry.
- Let the peanut butter fingers cool completely before cutting them into bars. This will help them hold their shape.
Conclusion:
Peanut butter fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover peanut butter, and they are also a fun project to do with kids. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of peanut butter fingers that will be enjoyed by everyone.
