How to Make Oh Henry Bars

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Make the crust: In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until just combined. Press the dough evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
Make the peanut butter layer: In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter and softened butter until smooth. Beat in the powdered sugar and egg until well combined. Stir in the chopped peanuts.
Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the peanut butter layer is set.
Make the chocolate layer: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer and spread evenly.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is firm. Cut into bars and enjoy!
