How to Make Golden Peanut Butter Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 cup packed light brown sugar.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold, cubed unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1 cup coarsely chopped salted peanuts.
- Reserve 2 cups of the crumb mixture. Set aside.
- Press the remaining crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared 13x9 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Meanwhile, in a separate large bowl, beat together 1/2 cup milk, 1 cup creamy peanut butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the baked crust.
- Sprinkle the reserved 2 cups of crumb mixture evenly over the peanut butter layer.
- Bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the topping is lightly browned and the filling is set.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
