Blogger Bonanza {Oatmeal and Peanut Butter Bar}

I would like to thank, A Law Student's Journey for this fabulous opportunity...

My name is Kim and I am happily married to my Prince Travis,  and the mother of a perfect little 4 1/2 year old princess named MadiMoo (this has been her nick name since birth and I know one day she will hate me for it).

I work full time for the government and have just gotten into crafting, blogging, etc...  I just got married on 1/1/11(he shouldn't forget that date) but before then I really didn't cooked, bake or craft.  After I got married a miracle happened, I got interested in blogs and learned that I can do these things.  When people posted the tutorials they didn't seem THAT hard!!! My love is baking, but little by little I am getting better at cooking too. 
 And to my amazement I started my own blog, Life as WE Know It.

With all that said, I am going to introduce you to a wonderful and easy post for baking...

They are the most scrumptious Oatmeal Bars you will ever have.  It's an Oatmeal and Peanut Butter Bar

Ingredients:

Bar

1/2c butter

1/2c brown sugar

1/2c sugar

1 egg

1/3 c peanut butter
1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 salt

1c flour

1c oats

1c chocolate chips

Note: You can put the chocolate chips into the dough or wait and melt it on top

Icing

1/2c powdered sugar

2Tbsp peanut butter
2Tbsp Milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Cream butter and sugars together, add the egg and peanut butter and mix well.

Stir in soda, salt flour and oats.  Press into a 9x13 pan, Sprinkle chocolate chips over top and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden.  Remove from oven and drizzle icing over.

I changed a couple little things.  I mixed the chocolate chip into the batter mix, and I double the batch.

 Mix the sugar, brown sugar and butter together

Add baking powder, and salt

 

Egg, flour and oats

I added the chocolate chips instead of putting them on top

Press into a cookie sheet (in the recipe it says 9x13 but I wanted bigger that's why the two sides look a little different, I had to make it twice :) )

 Icing:

 Add milk and peanut butter and mix

, then add in the powder sugar.

 Out of the oven

 Drizzle icing and let cool...

Then tada!!!  This is what you get....
