Rebekah's Peanut Butter Bars

Peanut Butter Bars

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick cooking oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips

Icing:
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons milk

In a mixing bowl, cream butter, sugars, and peanut butter. Add egg and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour, oats, baking soda and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Spread into a greased 13 in. x 9 in. x 2 in. baking pan (can use 10 in. x 15 in. too-just bake 5 min. or so less). Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 10 minutes. Combine icing ingredients; drizzle over bars. Yield: 3-4 dozen. (Note: Margarine can be used instead of butter if you prefer.)
