- 1 cup (258 grams) creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar

Bake the Ultimate Peanut Butter Cookie Bars
Preheat your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), and get ready to grease your trusty 9×13-inch pan for non-stick bliss.
Start the mixer and cream together the butter and peanut butter until they’re as fluffy as clouds. Rain in the granulated and brown sugars and watch them whip into a sweet frenzy.
Drop in the eggs one by one, followed by a splash of vanilla, beating well to invite everyone to the flavor party.
In a separate gathering bowl, the flour, baking soda, and salt mingle. Introduce them to the buttery peanut bowl gradually, and mix just enough to combine, like a friendly handshake.
Gently fold in the quick oats, and let the chocolate chips join the mix, ensuring they’re well distributed, like confetti at a parade.
Press this doughy dream into the pan, spreading it evenly with love and anticipation.
Slide it into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. You’re looking for that golden edge of greatness and a center that’s set like your resolve to eat healthily tomorrow.
Once baked to perfection, let them cool—if you can wait—then cut into generous bars. They’re best served with a side of smiles and tall glasses of milk.
