peanut butter fingers
This delicious recipe came from a friend at Church...She is always requested to make them, and for good reason...they are great! I put my own touch on them...hers only have the chocolate topping, I added the peanut butter, at my sons request. Kids love these...even the big ones...lol! The oat meal gives them a somewhat healthy aspect...or we can at least think so...also, makes them a bit chewy...reminds me a bit of granola... Enjoy! Pictures are mine
