Cookie Bar Crumble

This is what it should look like after you have creamed the butter, sugar and quick oats together.  I then press it into an 8″x 8″ cake pan, I use the rubber scraper that I mixed it all together with to press it down, or else I will stick my hand into a sandwich baggie to press, so my hands stay clean.  I like to minimize the mess that I make when I am cooking.

While this is baking, I measure out the chocolate chips and Peanut butter.  I usually guesstimate the peanut butter that way I don’t have a nasty measuring cup to clean.

After it melts over low to medium heat you spread it over the top of the cookie bars.  Make sure the bars have cooled some before you melt the topping or when you put it on it may all stick and pull up.  If you do this, you will see what I am talking about.

It is good to let these set for at least an hour before you cut them, just so they don’t all crumble when you take them out.  If you want them sooner, cool them in the refrigerator.  Enjoy, Granny
