Peanut Butter Bars image

This recipe comes from a friend of mine whose Mother worked it the local schoolhouse cafeteria. This is the original peanut butter bars that were served and they are delicious, just as I remember them as a child.

These bars are a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try making them with half the amount of butter next time.

I love that these bars are so versatile. I can add different mix-ins, like chocolate chips or chopped nuts, to change up the flavor.

These bars are the perfect make-ahead dessert. I can make them a day or two in advance and they're still just as good.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars turned out dry and crumbly.

I added some chopped peanuts to the top of the bars before baking them. It gave them a nice crunchy texture.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I made these bars with almond butter instead. They turned out great!

I had some trouble getting the bars to set. I think I might have needed to cook them for a little longer.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed these bars. The chocolate coating is the perfect complement to the peanut butter.
