Ingredients

1 cup granulated sugar1 cup packed brown sugar1 cup butter, unsalted or salted as you prefer1 tsp vanilla extract3 eggs1 cup peanut butter (smooth is easier to work with)2 cups quick oats2 cups whole wheat flour1 tsp baking soda1 extra cup of peanut butter, set aside

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Cream together the sugar, brown sugar and butter.

Then, one by one, add and mix in the vanilla, eggs, peanut butter (don't forget to set aside the last cup), oats, flour, baking soda and salt.

When everything is mixed thoroughly, spread the mix into a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil.

Bake in the oven on 350 for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and mostly solid on top.

Before the bars are very cool, spread the set aside peanut butter on top of your bars. Go slowly, so you don't pull up the top of the bars.

Use the edges of the foil to carefully lift your bars out of the pan and let them finish cooling on the counter or a baking rack, still on the foil.

Cut into 32 bars when they're cool, and enjoy!
