So, I betcha' can't guess what my favorite kind of candy is. REESE'S! I love all Reese's, but the best kinds are Fast Breaks and the special edition Holiday cups (like the Easter eggs, or the Christmas trees, or the Halloween ghosts). I don't know what it is about them, they just taste better. I think it might be the fact that unlike the normal cups, they don't have that hard edge AND they have more peanut butter. Either way, I like them the best.
One of my favorite desserts to make is something that I call Peanut Butter Fingers. They're pretty quick and easy.
Here's what you need:- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2/3 cup peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups flours
- 2 cups oatmeal
For the topping:
- 12 ounces chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 2 to 4 tablespoons milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs and peanut butter. Stir until smooth. Add remaining ingredients (excluding topping ingredients) and mix until evenly blended. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Press mixture evenly into the pan. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, cover immediately with chocolate chips and allow chips to melt, then spread evenly. Blend together powdered sugar, peanut butter, and milk until smooth. Spread topping mixture evenly over the melted chocolate chips, making a swirl pattern. Cool, cut, and serve.
If your swirls don't look very good, it's not the end of the world. My swirls look terrible, but it still tastes delicious!
