I made them, not as pretty as your peanut butter bars, but very easy and very very good. Thank you.

Quick and easy, but VERY sweet so cut small pieces. I whipped the peanut butter filling until the color lightened. Very fluffy and light. I also added 1 t. of vanilla to deepen the taste. My only complaint is that this recipe does not make enough chocolate topping and it was a little difficult to spread.
