Double Peanut Butter Bars

School started last week here.  My son went for the first 2 days, and then was home sick.  Somehow he managed to get Strep in the first 2 days of school, really?  It was a long weekend of trying to get him better.  His fever has been impossible to get rid of, so he wasn’t exactly himself this weekend.  Now with 4 doses of antibiotics in him, hopefully this will be the turning point.  I know I could use a good nights sleep, can’t even imagine how good it will be for him! 

These bars were one of a few desserts that our whole family liked.  My husband isn’t much of a chocolate lover, and I am a complete choco-holic.  So finding something we agree on is not easy.  Peanut butter is one thing though!  My husband came home from work one day, and asked if I could make something for him to bring to work the next day.  I had just found a bag Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips in my pantry, so I figured I would make something with them.  The recipe on the back of the bag looked good enough to me.  They were a hit!  People at worked loved them, we loved them, and they were great slightly warmed with ice cream on top later!  I will gladly make these again!
