Peanut Butter Chocolate Revel Bars

I found this recipe in a Better Homes and Gardens cooking magazine, but it can also be found here. They are a very thick, soft bar and very good!







Print

1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
2 cups creamy peanut butter (the whole jar)
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups flour

Filling
 1 (14-oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
2 tbsp butter or peanut butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup peanuts (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (325 degrees if using a dark-colored pan). Line a 9x13" pan with foil or parchment paper and spray with nonstick spray and set aside.

2. In a large bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, for 30 seconds. Add the brown sugar, baking soda and salt, and beat until well combined, scraping the bowl occasionally. Beat in the eggs, and 2 cups peanut butter, and vanilla and beat until well-combined.  Beat in as much of the flour as you can of the flour using the electric mixer, and then, if necessary, stir in any remaining flour using a wooden spoon. Set aside.

3. For the filling, in a medium saucepan cook and stir the sweetened condensed milk, semisweet chocolate chips, and 2 tbsp butter (or peanut butter) over medium-low heat until everything is melted. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla.

4. Reserve 2 cups of the peanut butter dough for topping. Press the remaining dough in bottom of the prepared pan. Evenly spread with the chocolate filling. Drop reserved dough in spoonfuls over the filling. If desired, sprinkle with peanuts.

5. Bake 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is light brown, Cool on a wire rack.


Store bars between sheets of waxed paper in an airtight container at room temperature, for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
