Peanut Butter Cup Oatmeal Bars

I have an abundance of oatmeal that I need to use in the next few weeks, so I have been trying some new oatmeal recipes. This one is GREAT! I found it on Pinterest.




Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 2 c light brown sugar
  • 1 c creamy peanut butter
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 Tbs vanilla
  • 2 c flour
  • 1 c old fashioned oats
  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 c whit chocolate baking chips
  • 2 cups Reese's miniatures, chopped 
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray
  3. Cream butter and sugar together in a large mixing bowl. Add peanut butter and continue mixing.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each egg. Add in vanilla.
  5. Combine flour, oats, baking powder, and salt in a small mixing bowl.
  6. Add the flour mixture slowly stirring until well combined.
  7. Stir in the baking chips.
  8. Spread 2/3 of the dough on the bottom of the pan. Top with Reese's minis or chopped miniatures.
  9. Drop the remaining dough on top by the teaspoon. It doesn't have to be perfect and it won't cover all the Reese's.
  10. Bake for about 30 minutes. Let cool completely and then cut into bars.
