lunch lady pb bars

remember back in elementary school, when you would ask your mom for an extra twenty five cents so you could buy one of the 'lunch ladies peanut butter bars'?? every recipe i find, just doesn't taste the same.  i ran across this recipe the other day and it was probably as close as i'll ever get to the actual famous pb bars. {i loved that it doesn't call for a kajillion cups of peanut butter & oatmeal!!!}

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed

1 cup butter

1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs

1 cup peanut butter

2 cups oatmeal

2 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

cream first 3 ingredients together. add the vanilla, eggs and peanut butter and combine. add the remaining ingredients and mix together. spread on a greased pan, and bake at 350 for 15 minutes. {or until golden brown} while hot, spread 1 1/2 cups of peanut butter on top.  cool so the peanut butter can become solid again.  spread your favorite chocolate frosting on top.  {i used a bag of chocolate chips} enjoy!!
