THE REAL CAFETERIA PEANUT BUTTER BARS
These are exactly like the ones I grew up with in the 80's! You can half the recipe and use a 9x13; I like to make a bunch and either freeze them or gobble them. (I have five kids...they usually get gobbled! ;) Sometimes I leave off the chocolate chip layer, put the PB frosting directly on top of the bars, and smother with Texas sheet cake icing instead. YUM!
