How to Make Chewy Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
- Beat in the corn syrup and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Stir in the quick-cooking oats until thoroughly mixed.
- Press the oat mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- While the base is cooling, melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl in 30 second intervals, stirring until smooth and creamy. (If using a microwave, be careful not to overheat).
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the cooled oat base.
- Sprinkle with the chopped peanuts and remaining chocolate chips.
- Gently press down on the toppings to adhere them to the chocolate layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until completely firm, before cutting into bars.
