INSTRUCTIONS
More Back of the Box Gourmet By Michael McLaughlin
These easy bars have a lot of different flavors and textures going on
(the oats in particular are a nice touch), but the Baker's chocolate
is the essential ingredient. Labeled semi-sweet, it's always seemed
to me to fall closer to the bittersweet end of the chocolate scale--a
state of affairs that really suits my palate. The recipe also makes a
lot of bars, which suits my appetite as well.
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Mix sugar, margarine, 1/4 cup peanut butter
and vanilla. Stir in oats. Press into lightly greased 15 x 10 x
1-inch jelly roll pan. Bake 10 minutes; cool 5 minutes. Stir together
remaining peanut butter and chocolate; spread over crust. Sprinkle
with peanuts. Chill; cut into bars.
