Found this recipe in Maw Maw's Old Church Cookbook and have enjoyed making it ever since. A very simple but good recipe. They are not like the mud bar that has chocolate on top. Has the taste and texture of what grandma use to make.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover peanut butter. I always have a jar of peanut butter in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

I love that these bars can be made with gluten-free oats. It makes them a great option for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
