\"chocolateYou can thank Larry for the name of these yummy little treats. After one bite, he said, “they taste just like those no-bake things the girls used to make.” And he is right – I have inadvertantly created a more complicated version of that recipe we all made when we were teenagers. So, why even bother? First of all, there is the natural peanut butter, which you can’t use in the old recipe, because the fat content is too low compared to Jif and Skippy. For the most part though, it is just because they are better – the taste is very similar, but the texture is nicer and since you use old fashioned oats, they have a bit more chewiness. All in all, they are very satisfying, and quite easy to make. Maybe the next step in cookie making for a beginning baker?<\/p>\n

1\/2 cup butter, melted
\n1 cup brown sugar
\n1\/2 cup natural peanut butter
\n1\/2 cup baking cocoa
\n2 eggs
\n1 teaspoon vanilla
\n1 cup all purpose flour
\n1\/2 cup old fashioned oats
\n1\/2 teaspoon salt
\n1 teaspoon baking powder
\n1\/2 cup coarsely chopped, roasted, salted peanuts
\n1\/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips<\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and grease a 8 x 8 pan. In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, brown sugar, peanut butter and baking cocoa. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, along with the vanilla. Measure all remaning ingredients into the same bowl, and mix to combine completely. Spread evenly in the pan, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in pan, and cut into squares. Store in an airtight container – best eaten within 4 days or so. These were excellent used in brownie sundaes, as well as just gouging pieces out of the dish, standing at the kitchen counter.\u00a0 Not that we do stuff like that around here…\"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
