Peanut Butter Squares

I love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate. Add oats and its pretty much amazing. Thats what these bars are. I got this recipe from my sister Amy and it is so easy and so delicious. The recipe says to not only top this with the chocolate, but also to put a peanut butter frosting on top of that. Ive never done that because it seems like it would be a little bit of a sugar overload, but Im going to include it on here so you have the option to try it if youd like. Let me know if you do and if you liked it! I think theyd be pretty darn good any way you make them.
