1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cupbutter or margarine, softened
1/3 cuppeanut butter
1egg
1cupGold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1cupold-fashioned oats
1/2 teaspoonbaking soda
1/4 teaspoonsalt
3tablespoons unsweetened baking cocoa
1tablespoonmilk
11/2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cupcrunchy peanut butter
2 to 2 1/2tablespoons milk
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F and generously grease a 13x9-inch pan.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, 1/3 cup peanut butter, and an egg on medium speed until smooth. Add flour, oats, baking soda, and salt, and mix until combined. Transfer mixture to a pan and spread evenly.
Bake until golden brown, usually around 17 to 22 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack for about 15 minutes.
Blend all Peanut Butter Frosting ingredients until velvety and easy to spread, saving 1/3 cup. Combine cocoa and 1 tablespoon milk into the rest of the frosting until glossy. Add more milk as needed until it reaches the desired spreadable consistency.
Spread the cooled bars with cocoa frosting and then drop teaspoonfuls of Peanut Butter Frosting on top. Swirl the two frostings together for a marbled design. Cut into squares by slicing into 8 rows by 6 rows.
