Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bars




OhmyGOD are these good!

This recipe was adapted from the back of the Baker's semi-sweet Chocolate Chunks package

Ingredients:

1 - 3/4 Cups unbleached flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 - 1/2 sticks of butter, softened
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1/2 cup of firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg
1+ tsp vanilla
1 cup of peanut butte -- we used unsalted, unsweetened organic peanut butter
3/4 package of Baker's chocolate chunks

Preheat oven to 375 F.

In a large bowl beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, add egg and vanilla and beat until well blended
Add peanut butter and mix well
Add flour and baking soda, mix well
Fold in chocolate chunks

Place into 15x9 inch pan and pat firmly so mixture covers the entire bottom of the pan

Bake for about 20 minutes (test for doneness)
Let cool and cut into 36 squares

I made these tonight and they turned out yummy, I didn't have any chocolate chunks. I only had chips, but it worked anyway! Thanks for the great recipe!
