Ingredients

Dough

  • 1 cup butter

  • 1 2 cup peanut butter

Instructions 

  • Line an 8-inch or 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Melt butter and brown sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat until dissolved. Stir in vanilla and oats, then cook over low heat for 3-4 minutes.
  • Press half of the oat mixture into the prepared dish. Melt peanut butter and chocolate chips together and spread over the crust. Reserve some for drizzling.
  • Spread remaining oat mixture over the chocolate layer, press gently, then drizzle with remaining chocolate mixture. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours before cutting.

Notes
