1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 c butter (softened)
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 c all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder

1 c peanut butter (crunchy or creamy)
TOP LAYER (CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER)
1 pkg semi-sweet chocolate chips, 12 oz.
1/2 c peanut butter

Steps:

  • 1. Cookie Layer: Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 13x9 pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil over the edges for easy lifting and cleaning.
  • 2. Sift and blend dry ingredients; set aside.
  • 3. In a separate bowl, using a mixer mix sugars, butter, egg, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
  • 4. Slowly add dry ingredients until well blended (the consistency of cookie dough). Fold in the chopped peanut butter cups.
  • 5. Spread evenly in the lined pan to the edges. Bake 15-20 minutes until golden. Be careful to check edges.
  • 6. Let cookie bar cool.
  • 7. Second Layer (Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Filling): Mix butter and graham crackers. Then add remaining filling ingredients. Mix until well blended and creamy.
  • 8. Spread filling on top of cooled cookie covering the entire top of the cookie bar.
  • 9. Top Layer (Chocolate & Peanut Butter): Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals stirring each time until melted. Add peanut butter and mix until blended. Spread on cookie bar.
  • 10. Let cookie bar cool completely before cutting into squares. It can be refrigerated for an hour or so. Depending on how they are cut, it can yield several dozen.
