The Ultimate Peanut Butter Cookie Bars

Sharing is caring!

Are you a peanut butter lover?  I adore peanut butter!  Peanut butter milkshakes, peanut butter with apples, peanut butter smoothies… even just peanut butter on a spoon.  So it’s not shocking that one of my favorite cookies to make involves peanut butter.   And I love bar cookies!  I like that they are thicker, which usually mean softer and chewier… oh and they are so much quicker to make!  So today I’m sharing with you my Ultimate Peanut Butter Cookie Bar.

I love bringing these to Christmas gatherings because it’s something different than the  usual.    Today I’m part of a week long Christmas Cookie Exchange.  At the end of this post you can find links to all the other awesome blogs participating… time to load up on some great new cookies recipes.

And here’s the Ultimate Peanut Butter Cookie Bar Recipe….
