Oatmeal Cookie Bars with Peanut Butter Frosting

Hi all! Are you enjoying your week so far? It’s been quite warm the past couple days in the South- I figure one of the last times it’ll be warm until after winter. Can you believe it’s almost November? Crazy!

Today I want to share with you one of my new favorite desserts- Oatmeal Cookie Bars with PB Frosting. I’m on a cleanse right now, but we had part of a pan of these left over when I started it yesterday. Luke’s taken care of them for me. 😉 Even though these are sweet, chocolatey and peanut buttery, Luke loves them! Success!

Don’t they look amazing?!? Here’s the recipe! It was quite easy to make! 🙂
