Butterfinger Bars are a scrumptious oatmeal bar cookie, infused with peanut butter and covered in a rich chocolate glaze. Better make extra: they don't last long!Recipe shared by Kelly Nelson.
In an electric mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add ¾ cup peanut butter, baking soda, salt, vanilla and eggs and mix well to combine. Stir in flour and oats.
Spread mixture on greased cookie sheet, and bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool until slightly warm; 5-8 minutes. Spread ¾ cup peanut butter over warm cookies on sheet. Allow to cool for 10-15 minutes.
Warm the frosting in a microwave for 30 seconds. Stir with a spoon until it has an even consistency.
Drizzle warm chocolate frosting on top and use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly.
Notes
It is much easier to spread the dough with wet hands than a spatula.
