Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

by Irene Lindvall


Oh the woes of having to make a recipe a day. Sometimes I just have to bake. And sometimes I just have to bake at technically the next day, like at 12:34am because that is the only time I have to cook. I actually didn't intend to technically make this the next day, but that is just how it turned out. I actually didn't try my first piece until 2am, but I will still give it an A for effort and for not giving up and just going to bed when I got home from dinner.

This recipe is super easy and the cooking time was 25 - 30min. I typically go with the middle time when given a range and chose 28min for this recipe. I took it out and let it cool for the 10min but thought the middle could still use a little more cooking after sampling. I reheated the oven and popped it back in for an additional two minutes, and then I took it out, inspected it, and popped it back it for another three minutes. I need to do some reading about placement of items in the oven and see if this is contributing to my baking not being fully cooked through. I haven't had this problem with everything I've made, but it seems to happen more often than not.

Things I learned from this recipe:

I think my oven would like to make a case for me to bake on the longer end rather than the middle range of times like I do for most dishes I make for dinner.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Probably
