If you love peanut butter as much as my family, you will love this recipe. These bars are so rich and good! I got the original recipe here. Next time I'm going to try them with a chocolate cake mix.
Peanut Butter Gooey Bars (adapted from Love Veggies & Yoga)
crust:
1 box cake mix (white, yellow, butter flavor, or chocolate)
1/2 c. (1 stick) butter, melted
1 t. vanilla
1 egg
middle:
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
2/3 c. marshmallow cream
2/3 c. peanut butter
1 t. vanilla
top:
1 c. chocolate chips
2/3 c. reeses pieces
frosting:
1/2 c. chocolate chips
1/2 c. peanut butter
3 T. butter
For crust, mix cake mix, butter, vanilla and egg until you get a stiff dough.
Press into a greased 9x13" pan.
For middle layer, combine sweetened condensed milk, marshmallow cream, peanut butter and vanilla.Pour over crust.Sprinkle with chocolate chips and reeses pieces.Bake at 350 F for 20-23 minutes. (It will seem really jiggly when you take it out, that's good!)For frosting, melt chocolate, peanut butter and butter in a microwave safe bowl. Mix until smooth.Drizzle over warm bars.Allow to cool completely and then refrigerate for several hours.Cut into squares and enjoy!
I'm so excited to try these, they sound SO delicious!!
