0:08
so I'm curious how many of you had a
0:11
lunch lady we had an amazing one and she
0:13
made the best peanut butter bars after a
0:17
lot of years of research my sisters and
0:19
I have come up with the perfect lunch
0:25
bar so if you're new to the channel
0:28
welcome my name is Kristen Hills from
0:30
Six Sister Stuff now I usually share
0:34
easy dinner ideas but I could not pass
0:37
up on this recipe school is almost out
0:40
so we're celebrating now growing up you
0:42
didn't get these peanut butter bars with
0:43
every single meal but I just remember
0:45
every Friday my mom would let me bring
0:47
50 cents i'd give it to the lunch lady
0:50
and she would then give me my own peanut
0:53
butter bar so if you want some memories
0:57
flooding back and some tasty goodness in
0:59
your mouth let's go make these easy
1:03
lunch lady peanut butter
1:12
bars so you're going to add one cup of
1:14
butter to a microwave safe bowl and then
1:17
we're just going to throw this into the
1:18
microwave until it's softened so when
1:20
it's all nice and softened just dump it
1:24
bowl then you just need one cup of
1:29
sugar and one cup of brown
1:32
sugar make sure you press that
1:36
down next you're going to crack two eggs
1:38
and also put it right
1:41
in on top of that add one teaspoon of
1:45
vanilla and go ahead and mix that
1:52
looking good so this recipe calls for 2
1:54
and 1/2 cups of peanut butter sometimes
1:56
it's hard to put it into a measuring cup
1:59
so I kind of just eyeball so right now
2:00
we're just doing one cup we're going to
2:02
save a cup and a half for
2:08
later so next we're adding two cups of
2:15
oats and on top of that two cups of
2:28
flour and last you're going to add just
2:30
one teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of
2:34
soda and mix it all together
2:43
next you're going to take a cookie sheet
2:44
and spray it with cooking
2:47
spray and I'm just going to take the
2:48
dough and I like to put it right in the
2:51
middle okay the trick when you're making
2:53
peanut butter bars is that you don't
2:54
want to push the dough all the way to
2:56
the sides you want to leave a good inch
2:58
on each side because it will expand and
3:00
grow and so then you won't have the
3:02
crazy crust it will all be even
3:11
okay they're all ready we're going to
3:12
bake them at 350° for 15
3:19
minutes okay so it just came out of the
3:21
oven now you're going to add just little
3:23
tablespoons all over the peanut butter
3:25
bars while they're still really
3:28
hot okay we're going to let it sit just
3:30
like this for about 2 minutes or so let
3:33
the peanut butter melt then we're going
3:34
to spread it all around
3:38
okay we're all done here we're going to
3:39
set it aside and make the frosting so
3:41
this frosting recipe is my mom's
3:43
homemade frosting so it's not exactly
3:46
like the peanut butter bars you had
3:48
growing up but I'm telling you it makes
3:50
it even better using this recipe so
3:52
we're going to start by adding a half
3:54
cup of butter just right into the bowl
3:56
now this is really softened then we're
3:58
going to add just about 1/4 cup of milk
4:01
on top of that we're going to add 3 cups
4:08
perfect on top of that one teaspoon of
4:10
vanilla and four tablespoons of
4:13
cocoa then beat it all
4:18
together and just spread it carefully
4:27
out all right guys you can see all these
4:42
minute it's really one of my favorites
4:44
all right if you want more easy dessert
4:47
recipes you can find some just right up
4:49
