Peanut Butter Fingers (like school lunch)

Crust:
1 1/2 sticks butter 1/2 cup sugar
1 heaping cup brown sugar 1 egg
2/3 cup peanut butter 3/4 t baking soda
1/3 t salt 1/2 T vanilla
1 1/2 cup flour 2 cups quick oats

Mix butter, sugars, egg, peanut butter, baking soda, salt and vanilla. Add flour and oats and mix well. Spread on large greased cookie sheet. Bake at 325 degrees for 10 min.

Meanwhile, whip 2/3 cup peanut butter (a different 2/3 than what you already added). When crust is done baking, spread whipped peanut butter over crust.

Ice bars with Chocolate Frosting:
1/3 cup melted butter 1/4 cup cocoa
1 cup brown sugar 1/3 cup evaporated milk

Mix butter and cocoa in a saucepan. Add brown sugar and evaporated milk. Cook two minutes stirring constantly. Cool frosting and pour over two pounds of powdered sugar. Beat well, until smooth and silky. (I half this recipe for frosting when I make it because I think it makes too much chocolate.)
